In 2004 Argentina sent a team to the Homeless Football World Cup for the first time. This documentary chronicles the preparations and expectations of the players and their intimate trip to compete in the event, which was held that year in Gothenburg, Sweden. From the cold stairs of underground train stations to the heart of the first world, the players live a dream in seven days that will change their lives forever.
