Taika Waititi's most recent film, Next Goal Wins, is a heartwarming underdog story that chronicles the journey of Dutch-American coach Thomas Rongen as he strives to transform one of the weakest soccer teams in the world into champions. Inspired by the true story of the American Samoa national football team, who are determined to overcome their past failures and gain respect, this movie showcases Waititi's unique blend of sports and drama. With his trademark sense of humor, Next Goal Wins promises to be another remarkable film from Waititi, even though it is based on a well-known source material.
The choice to create Next Goal Wins was a daring one as it revolves around a relatively fresh narrative inspired by a highly regarded British documentary from 2014. The documentary, also named Next Goal Wins, was helmed by Mike Brett and Steve Jamison and achieved great success at the British Independent Film Awards, securing the prestigious Best Documentary Award. This film delves into the background of American Samoa and its relationship with soccer, delving into the challenges and dreams of a nation situated far away from the rest of the world.

The focal point of the film centers around Thomas Rongen, whose arrival instills a sense of optimism in the national team as they gear up for the first round of qualifiers for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Next Goal Wins chronicles the team's preparations, daily routines, and performance in the FIFA qualifiers, which may not hold much significance to the rest of the world, but for them, it's their ultimate opportunity to shed the label of being the worst national football team in the world. Waititi's film delves into the dynamic between Coach Rongen and his transgender star player, Jaiyah Saelua, taking creative liberties to infuse comedic elements into the narrative.
