Wiki.

Offside (Turkish: Dar Alanda Kısa Paslaşmalar) is a 2000 Turkish comedy-drama film, written and directed by Serdar Akar, about a local amateur football that hopes to win the league championship. The film, which went on nationwide general release across Turkey on 8 December 2000 (2000-12-08), won four awards at the 20th Istanbul International Film Festival, including Best Turkish Film of the Year and the People's Choice Award. It was described by author Rekin Teksoy as having a "less innovative albeit fluent style" in comparison to the director's debut film On Board (Turkish: Gemide, 1998).
