On the eve of the World Cup, three teams of young directors embark on a journey through the largest country in the world to find out what really makes up the soul and meaning of real Russian football. In a country where football exists more in the headlines of scandalous tabloids and newly built, shiny stadiums-palaces, in parallel, the invisible life of raw and non-program football, yard boxes and football fields arranged in the most unexpected places is rapidly developing. The blood and energy of this life are young people driven by a pure love of the game, not looking for awards and titles. The stories of 3 heroes who live at a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers from each other, but are passionate about the same thing, are told in a documentary almanac, the shooting of which took place throughout Russia.
