    • Synopsis
    • Pedro Pintos (Adrián Suar) –a call center manager at an important medical services company– is a soccer fan of any team, jersey, flag or nationality. He could watch soccer 24/7. He’s been married to Verónica (Julieta Díaz) for twenty years and they have two teenage daughters.
      His passion for soccer has been with him since childhood, living together quite in harmony with the rest of his life. But, before he knew it, his obsession started to gradually take control of his other spaces and, mainly, his loved ones.
      At a certain time, Pedro finds himself separated from Verónica and fired from his job. Submerged in the tough loneliness of fall, he acknowledges himself as a soccer addict and decides to look for help. Pedro will try to get his old life back, and to find the balance between his passion for soccer and the love for his family. But it might be too late.
