Champions (2018)

In the bustling world of ACB (Spanish basketball national league), Marco Montes stands as a secondary coach, simmering with internal discontent both professionally and personally. His arrogance and volatile demeanor lead him to a heated argument during a game that culminates in his expulsion from the stadium. Later, a drunken Marco inadvertently collides with a police car, leading to his subsequent arrest. At his trial, the judge presents a stark choice: face two years in jail or serve 90 days of community service. Begrudgingly, Marco finds himself mentoring a unique basketball team known as "Los Amigos" (The Friends), a lively group of players with learning difficulties. Simultaneously, Marco's marriage to Sonia, a woman yearning for a child, hangs by a thread. As Marco grapples with his personal demons, he is faced with the daunting task of preparing Los Amigos for the Paralympic national league's competition — a challenge that only exacerbates his frustration and strains his relationship with Sonia. However, the team's infectious enthusiasm and genuine kindness prompt Marco to reflect on his life and his treatment of others. Amidst the turmoil, the unexpected support of Sonia leads Marco on a journey of redemption. His mission becomes not just to coach Los Amigos but to transform them into the champions he knows they can be. As he navigates the obstacles that come his way, Marco gradually learns the value of patience, resilience, and the transformative power of friendship.
