Safety Net

What does it take to chase a dream? 

Safety Net is a powerful short film about a young working-class boy who discovers his gift as a goalkeeper, guided by the unwavering love of his father.

But as years of sacrifice unfold, he’s confronted with the brutal truth of professional football—where talent and passion don’t always guarantee success.

 

This heartfelt story is more than just about football—it’s about family, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit. Whether you’ve lived the game, dreamed of it, or supported someone chasing their passion, Safety Net is a film that will stay with you.
