    • Synopsis
    • After World War II, while history licks the wounds of two world wars, in Salento there is another one, which has the inhabitants of two villages, Supersano and Ruffano, for its inhabitants. To make her burst desires for power, delusions of omnipotence, madness and ... a football match.
      The rivalry between the Supersano and Ruffano football teams surrounds the rivalry between two men. Ernesto, agricultural entrepreneur and president of the Supersano football team and Alfredo, retired general of the fascist regime and president of Ruffano Calcio. In the background, the love between Giulio and Agnese and the friendship that unites them with another young couple, Giovanna and Antonio.
