Marco is the assistant coach in Spain’s top basketball league. His bad attitude towards life causes endless problems for him. One day, his frustrations lead to a brawl with the head coach, and he gets drunk and crashes his car, winding up in court. He loses his job and his girlfriend, and is sentenced to coach a team of intellectually disabled players with a lust for life and an understanding of the things that truly matter.
