Brief Synopsis
Read More
Antonio Pisapia, known as Tony, is a pop singer. He has a namesake, a few years younger than him, who is a professional footballer. They have completely different characters: the first is a cynical and egocentric braggart, while the other is shy, humble and morose. For both men, the 1980s promise wealth, success and thrills, but their luck doesn't last long. Tony seduces a young girl and is accused of rape. After helping his team qualify for the UFA Cup, Antonio tears his ligaments and has to give up his career. He becomes a trainer, but there no longer seems to be a place for him in the world of football. One day the destiny of the two men meets: the surrender of one means the redemption of the other.
