Asians are stereotyped as not being innovative, as well as stereotyped as being nonathletic, so I was delighted to see this video about the Panyee Football Club. How do you play soccer when you live on a floating village in Thailand with no soil? These kids thought outside the box and figured out a way. Also, given my experiences with youth sports, I liked the video’s attitude toward the kids’ playing. This short film was sponsored by Thai Military Bank‘s “Make the Difference” campaign, which encourages people to do think differently and make a difference. I am not sure what that has to do with banking, but I am grateful that they sponsored this short.
