'Football is just a pretext!' A humorous, brief look at the lifes of a few men, some of whom have grown prematurely old, others of whom have yet to grow up. The characters are real, they live among us. It's just that they no longer seem as entusiastic about their favorite activity - socceer hooliganism - as they used to be. Beanpole, a middle-aged loner, finds himself in crisis one Sunday afternoon. His own fans threaten to assault him before a game. Beefy, the unwritten leader of a sizeable group of fans, comes to his aid. Thanks to him, Beanpole finds himself in new surroundings, and he observes with detachment the group of agging soccer hoooligans who have accepted him among them.
