In the last 30 years jump roping has moved off the sidewalks and onto the stage. It now features astounding acrobatics, lightning speed and international competition. Doubletime follows the top two American teams: The Bouncing Bulldogs of Chapel Hill, North Carolina and The Double Dutch Forces of Columbia, South Carolina. Although they train in neighboring states, the Bulldogs and the Forces scarcely cross paths as they belong to separate leagues that do not compete against one another.

One Goal is an objective, but also a passion. This documentary follows the path towards peace that a group of young amputated men began in Sierra Leone years ago. Through the power of their game they have become an example for their society. From icons of war to icons of peace and hope, they transformed their lives through a shared passion: football.
