What is Keeping Possession about?

Eboni, a skilled football defender, faces isolation at school after leaving her old team to join the Lightmoor Lionesses. Her former friends feel betrayed, and she's left out in the cold. Finding solace, she befriends Olivia, a popular girl with shared interests—except for football. As their friendship deepens, Eboni must decide whether to stay true to her passion for the sport or compromise to maintain their bond.
