Bruno is a thirty-year-old man from Rome with a wife and a son. But he still hasn’t found his path in life. After his latest failure, which costed him most of his savings, he has an outlandish and bold intuition: he discovers the little-known winter sport of curling and decides to start a team to participate to the selections for the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics. This amateur team will have to fight its way through a plethora of obstacles and improbable situations all the way to the podium. Will these underdogs make it?
