Movie description
On April 16, 2016, a devastating earthquake shakes the Ecuadorian coast. Independiente del Valle, a young soccer team from the Sangolquí Valley, invents a new face for soccer by donating the box office from Copa Libertadores tickets. The club joins the solidarity gestures of a united country. For a moment, sport is seized by a spirit that brings it closer to the realm of pure play. What happens, then, when the game stops being just a game? Is something new invented?
