Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

One family's love of soccer divides the household by pitting brother against mother and husband against wife in this classic comedy drama from Mexican director Icaro Cisneros. Small-town mother-of-two Flora is proud that her two soccer-playing sons have joined the successful Guadalajara team, but her excitement is short-lived when she learns that love-interest Felipe has a son that plays for the American team. Though the loving couple is willing to set their differences aside long enough to exchange wedding vows, the announcement that one of Flora's sons intends to marry Felipe's daughter threatens to turn a friendly rivalry into an all-out war!
