SYNOPSIS The movie deals with the championship-winning German soccer team of 1954. Its story is linked with two others: the family of a young boy is splitted due to the events in World War II, and the father returns from Russia after thirteen years. His problems in getting back to normality are shown, with references to his children and wife. The second story is about a reporter and his wife reporting from the tournament. |
