Have you heard about Golden Shoes? It’s a new feel good movie released on DVD and On Demand on October 6 packed full of talent as well as heart! This Dove-family-approved movie is the story of Christian, an eight year old boy who lives and breathes soccer. He wants to be like the professional soccer player like his idol, Christiano Ronaldo. Christian believes in his heart and soul, that he can be the best soccer player in the USA and play for the National Youth team. But first, he must overcome the impossible.
Christian’s dad is on active duty in Afghanistan and they haven’t heard from him in months. Christian’s mom is doing the best she can, working long hours and struggling to take her son to soccer practice. She tells Christian he can be whatever he wants to be. For some reason their neighbor, Frank, has a chip on his shoulder and is blackmailing the coach to put his twin boys on the playing field more than Christian. As a result, Christian’s athletic abilities are suffering. Instead of catching a break, Christian’s life gets more difficult when his mother is bed-ridden in the hospital as a result of a car accident, Frank is the guy in charge of Christian and he is forced to live in Frank’s basement until his mother recuperates.
He doesn’t want to spend any of his own money on this boy he doesn’t like. The neighbor takes Christian to get new shoes for soccer, asking that Christian be provided with old, dirty, free shoes. when Christian gets his muddy old soccer shoes, he can suddenly play like a pro and leads his team to victory after victory! Christian becomes an inspiration to his teammates as well and even talks one of his teammates out of fighting.
