Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
Popular Italian comedian Neri Parenti directs this sketch-based movie about Italy's famously obsessive soccer fans. In one segment, a doctor forbids his son to marry the daughter of a pilot because he supports a rival team. In another, a Milanese cabby installs a satellite dish in his taxi only to have it co-opted by pushy Roman fans. In yet another scene, a Neapolitan crook breaks into a house only to realize that it's the home of his favorite soccer star.
