Bend It Like Beckham

An Indian-English girl (Nagra from Blacklist) loves soccer, but her family wants her to go to school, get married to a nice Indian boy, and have kids. She wants to play soccer and marry her coach (Meyers from August Rush) - not an Indian. A couple of misunderstandings get in the way of her friendship with a fellow player (Knightley from Love Actually) and her sister's wedding is almost called off. It's is subtle, but WOW when you see it. Chadha (Bride & Prejudice) directs, so you know it's amazing. All in all, I say: SEE IT
