An important theme in this film is family expectations vs. personal desires. This is demonstrated by Jess wanting to make her parents happy by becoming a solicitor and marrying an Indian husband but what she really wants is to become a professional female football player.
The clash between family and personal desires occurs when Jess’ parents discover she has joined a women’s football team and is playing behind their back and against their will. Jess tries to persuade them to let her do what she really wants but her efforts are in vain until her coach Joe, comes and visits Jess and her parents, determined to change their minds about Jess’ future.
Esau is the progenitor of the Edomites and the elder twin brother of Jacob, the patriarch of the Israelites.[8] Esau and Jacob were the sons of Isaac and Rebekah, and the grandsons of Abraham and Sarah. Of the twins, Esau was the first to be born with Jacob following, holding his heel (the Hebrew name Yaacov meaning "Heel-holder"). Isaac was sixty years old and Rebekah is believed to have been younger when the boys were born.
