    • Synopsis
    • The film tells brief stories which depict characters and situations of the promotion football league in Argentina. A referee who is a Joan Manuel Serrat impersonator in the evenings, a coach who resorts to self-help phrases to motivate the team, an idol player with retirement plans, and a club manager who comes up with ideas to help the club survive. With the sport as a backdrop, the film looks into everyday life, the strategies and the resourcefulness to stay afloat in the amateur world. It’s a simple and honest account, giving rise to the digressions that frame the unique essence of this category: the passion.
