1917: World War One is raging in Europe. In Britain, Sterling Ladies - known as the Dagenham Invincibles - are playing to win. For two whirlwind seasons, they never lose a game. Yet once peace is restored, the factory girls must hang up their boots and see triumph fade into obscurity. 2023: Injured footballer Maya follows England's progress through the Women's World Cup. The world has changed, yet the roar of the Lionesses echoes the Invincibles' war-cry. Watching at home, Maya fears she'll never play again - but as she loses herself in the present, she hears the call of the past and finds fresh hope for the future.
