- In Iraq, there is 1 soldier for every 166 civilians. In Kashmir, there is 1 for every 20. A Hizbul Mujaheddin ex-militant, his son- a footballer, an Argentinean football coach and his sparkling Brazilian wife grapple with life on the streets of Kashmir. A Kashmiri kid dreams to play football in Brazil, but life in a silent war gets in the way.—Anonymous
- Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir.
Bashir Baba, a much-wanted leader of the Hizbul Mujahideen, was a Pakistan trained freedom fighter who has now given up the gun.
Basharat Baba, his son has grown up under the shadow of a silent war, but yet, within it, he found in football his passion and fuel.
Marcos, an Argentinean/Brazilian and a FIFA accredited football coach by profession, has started a football academy called ISAT and an exchange program to Brazil for his most talented players.
Basharat is one of them to play football in the land of legendary Pele is a possibility that has fairy tale qualities for him. The irony of it is that Basharat has been denied a passport by the Government of India.
His crime?
That he was born the son of a militant.
