Guys and Balls

Guys and Balls German Mnner wie wir, literally Men like us is a 2004 sports comedyromance film by German American director Sherry Hormann about a gay goalkeeper who assembles a gayonly soccer team to play against his exteam, which fired him due to homophobia.

When the big day of the game comes, the match starts out badly for Eckis team, but ultimately they are able to triumph over his old teammates by allowing their homophobia to turn against themselves.Mnner wie wir may be regarded as the first major German sports comedy. While this genre is far more established in the United States with movies such as Hard Ball 2001 or The Mighty Ducks 1992 in which an underdog team is posed to somehow find the spirit to win an important game against a far superior opponent, these kinds of movies are relatively rare in German cinema. It may therefore not be surprising that this particular movie was made by an Americanborn director.citation needed ........
