A comedy that reimagines the return to the game.

Synopsis:
Paulo and Marta are devoted supporters of southern Brazilian football club Novo Hamburgo and are going through a delicate patch in their relationship: for several 'matches' now, Paulo's star 'player' has failed to 'take the pitch.' In desperation, Paulo seeks out sexual enhancement pills, sparking a chain of discoveries proving that what seems like a 'problem' isn't always one after all.
