Nick is a Greek-Australian high-school student with ambitions to become a world-class soccer player. Christina Papadopoulos is the new Greek teacher, caught between traditional Greek expectations and her own feelings as a woman in the 1990s. Together, they take on the school's racist sportsmaster, who is determined that Australian Rules football be the school's only official sport. The Heartbreak Kid is a warm-hearted, sexy comedy about two people discovering each other, themselves, and the future.
