Synopsis
A chronicle of the 22-year career of football star Roberto Baggio (Andrea Arcangeli), that includes his relationship with family members, his turbulent debut as a player and differences with some of his coaches, between successes, injuries, and his discovery of Buddhism. The film begins with a young Baggio dreaming to win the FIFA World Cup with Italy against Brazil, to revenge the 1970 final.

Baggio has the occasion to lift the World Cup trophy also taking the long dreamed revenge. Unfortunately, the match is decided on a Penalty shoot-out, and Baggio himself fails the last penalty, handing the trophy to Brazil. In 2002, he hopes to participate to the World Cup, but a serious injury towards the end of the Serie A season seems to nullify his hopes. Instead, he returns to football only 77 days from the injury.
