Romance

5.0

Belgrade. Unknown territory. Mila Touré, 19, a rising French basketball prodigy, leaves Paris to join the women's team of Red Star, a prestigious but conservative Serbian club. She's not just a foreigner by language or nationality: her dark skin, outspoken nature, and fiery energy stir discomfort. She quickly realizes that her challenges won't only be on the court. Opposite her stands Marko Vujic, 35, a former player turned coach, still haunted by the traumas of the Balkan wars. Stern, perfectionist, sometimes harsh, he sees in Mila a challenge he never asked for. But her raw passion, instinctive style, and underlying vulnerability begin to shake his defenses. Between whistles and stolen glances, an explosive dynamic ignites. This isn't just a culture clash - it's a collision of unhealed wounds, identities in search of meaning, and repressed desires. Yet their fragile bond must face the judgment of teammates, external pressures, and most of all, the ghosts of their pasts. In a world where the slightest mistake can cost you everything, where emotions are often penalized, Mila and Marko must play the most intense match of their lives: the one for love. " Sentimental offside" explores sport as an emotional battlefield, where passion, loyalty, and identity collide. It's a powerful ode to resilience, to embracing the other, and to a love that dares to break the rules.

The human elite, now exiled aboard massive space arks, discovers a new habitable system: Elystra-a planet of vast, fertile lands... strangely deserted.

More astonishing still: an ancient AI known as ARKAN guards a secret that could upend human history. The fragile balance shatters.

Their fates will intertwine through wars, betrayals, and unlikely alliances... until the ultimate revelation: What if the extinction of the Elystrians was caused by humanity itself-returning in a forgotten, ancient cycle?
