LONDON, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Powered by Bank of America, the official bank of the FIFA World Cup 2026 and released during the tournament is a new short film  Street of Dreams , which tells the story of a young girl whose life has been upended through homelessness but refuses to give up on her dream of playing soccer. Set to the new U2 track, also titled 'Street of Dreams', the film features Bank of America's Sports with Us Global Ambassador Sir David Beckham to tell an uplifting story about resilience, hope and the transformative power of sport. The short film tells the story of a young girl 'Calle' played by newcomer Nevaeh Derricks. After her life is disrupted, Calle is seen holding on to soccer as a source of purpose and possibility. As she navigates uncertainty and self-doubt, she is guided by Sir David Beckham who appears as a personification of her inner voice, a guardian only she can see. He's a powerful symbol of belief and opportunity, standing with her and showing up when it matters. The film highlights Bank of America's recent commitment to grow their 'Soccer with Us' platform, which is showcased in the film. By the end of 2026, the bank aims to impact more than 1,000,000 young people globally through Soccer with Us, supporting young people aged 6-18 by combining sport with life skills. This includes their Soccer at Schools initiative in partnership with U.S. Soccer and the Soccer Forward Foundation which is designed to make soccer accessible to every school across the country by 2030 enabling the bank to positively impact millions more young people.  The release of Street of Dreams also coincides with the culmination of Street Child United's #IAmSomebody Tour. Delivered in partnership with Bank of America, the tour brought Young Leaders from the Street Child World Cup to communities and decision-makers across North America during the FIFA World Cup 2026™. As part of the tour, Sir David Beckham convened an event at Nu Stadium, the home of Inter Miami, where the Street Child United Young Leaders spoke of their experiences and how they're using sport as a vehicle for change in their communities. The tour follows the Street Child World Cup which took place in Mexico City 2026 from 5-15 May, where 28 teams of street-connected young people from around the world came together to play soccer, share their experiences, and develop advocacy demands for governments, institutions, and the global media. Commenting on the film, Sir David Beckham, Bank of America's Sports with Us Global Ambassador , said: "Football has given me opportunities I could never have imagined, but none of it would have been possible without people who believed in me along the way. Through my work with Bank of America and Street Child United, I've had the privilege of meeting incredible young people from around the world who have overcome unimaginable challenges with courage, resilience and hope. Their stories stay with you. That's why this campaign is so important. By supporting Street Child United and shining a light on its mission, we're helping more young people be seen, heard and given the opportunity to build brighter futures. Sport has the power to create confidence, connection and possibility, but every young person also needs someone who believes in them. I'm proud that Bank of America is using the platform of the FIFA World Cup 2026 to help amplify Street Child's work and invest in programmes that empower young people around the world to realise what's possible."
