Contrapelota
2018, Spanish. Directed by Diego Crespo.
A referee who is a Joan Manuel Serrat impersonator in the evenings, a coach who resorts to self-help phrases to motivate the team, an idol player with retirement plans, and a club official who comes up with ideas to help the club survive. What the film narrates is simple and honest: a portrait of the world of the promotion football league in Argentina.
