Description:
François, a former football player who was often ridiculed by his teammates, unexpectedly becomes a hero after scoring the game-winning goal in a crucial match. Unprepared for the sudden fame, François initially resists the attention. However, he soon sees it as a chance to get back at the team's star player, who had relentlessly mocked and humiliated him in the past. As the line between being a hero and seeking revenge becomes increasingly unclear, François must face the repercussions of his choices and decide whether to find redemption or risk becoming isolated.
