One Man up
L'Uomo in piu
Paolo Sorrentino
Two men carry the name Antonio Pisabia. One is the pop singer "Tony", the other a young professional soccer player. For the two men, the 80s promise wealth and success, but their fortunes take a turn for the worse. After seducing a young girl, Tony is accused of rape, while Antonio tears his ligaments and can no longer play soccer. Antonio becomes a coach, but finds he no longer has a place in the world of sports. One day, destiny brings these two men together, and the one's defeat means the other's redemption.
