Synopsis
A soccer match in a prison courtyard. A young guy struts his stuff with the ball, his technical prowess stunning the players of the rival team. He’s incredible. His name is Tibor Kovacs, he’s Hungarian, and his dream is to play for the French soccer team. For Manu, his cellmate, Tibor is a dream come true. Manu has been hanging around the fringes of the soccer scene forever, coping with the disappointment he feels about his lack of talent while he’s watched others become stars. Both men are in prison for minor offenses and have soon served their time. On the night before their release, Manu convinces Tibor to team up with him on the outside: Tibor will become the greatest soccer star in the world and Manu will be his agent…
