About this listen

Meet Tariq Nader, leader of ‘The Wolf Pack’ at Punchbowl Boys. He has been asked by the new principal to join a football competition with his mates in order to rehabilitate the public image of their school. But there’s a catch – half of the team is made up of high-school boys from Cronulla, also known as enemy territory – and Tariq must compete with their strongest player for the position of captain.

At school Tariq thinks he has life figured out, until he falls for a new girl called Jamila who challenges everything he knows. At home his outspoken ways have brought him into conflict with his family, and his influence with the team is slipping through his fingers. With complications on all fronts, he must learn to control his anger, and find what it takes to be a leader.

In confronting and often comic situations, Tariq’s relationships with his extended family and his friends are tested like never before, and he comes to learn that his reactions have serious consequences.
