Domingo
Fiction | Mexico, France, Austria | 2021 | 100 min | Spanish
Synopsis
When his wife leaves him, Domingo (55) is determined to prove that he is not only a looser that gets fired every other week. Domingo sets out to make his lifelong dream come true. Every Sunday, he goes and spends his time on the sidelines of an improvised soccer field, near his poor outskirt neighbourhood in Guadalajara, to commentate on the neighbourhood matches. While he constantly improves his style and technique, he keeps trying to get a job with the local TV station as his ultimate goal, but he never imagined how much his impassioned commentaries are changing the life of his entire community.
