In a dry, documenting style, the director brings the audience inside the heart of organized football supporters in Italy. Two teams are going to clash against each other the following Sunday: Turin's team, Toro, and their black and white guests usually known as Thieventus.
As the movie unfolds, we notice the devotion with which the supporters prepare for the great match, but also the differences among the two curves: Toro's "Ultras Granata", who, led by the mythical Margaro, know about grammar and include plenty of nice girls, and the "hunch-back" Juventus supporters, one of whom, in a dramatic moment of reality-TV, confesses to cameras that he hasn't got a woman for centuries.
Modernity lovers can't miss the spleen effect caused by music, clothes and hobbies typical of the late '70s in Italy.
More than everything, it is an interesting movie that defies common thinking about football supporters, showing the passion that they put in supporting their team, but also in creating friendships and activities in our impersonal modern cities.
