In the heart-pounding world of soccer, how far would an ardent fan go to support his national team? Enter Mariano Cárdenas (Adrian Uribe), a dedicated family man and civil servant, who epitomizes the extremes of passion and devotion for his beloved Mexico. Mariano firmly believes that his unwavering presence in the stadium is the only talisman that will steer his team to victory in the final qualifying match against the USA for the 2018 World Cup. Everything seems perfectly aligned for the monumental day, but life throws Mariano a curveball. The unexpected death of his uncle, a significant figure in his life with whom he shared a home and a hefty bet on the team, catapults him into a dilemma. Mariano finds himself torn between the solemnity of the funeral and the electrifying allure of the soccer stadium. The decision he makes triggers a domino effect. He loses his job, his wife, his home. Yet amidst the ruins of his life, Mariano's heart brims with joy as Mexico carves its path to the World Cup. "Penalty Kick" (2018) is a testament to the power of unwavering faith and the unimaginable lengths one man will go for the love of the game.
