During the Euro Cup final between Spain and Finland, a family gathers in Madrid to cheer for La Roja. But the real bomb isn’t dropped by any striker—it comes from Martín, the teenage son and a young football prodigy. Martín announces that he no longer wants to play. His parents can’t believe it: give up a brilliant career? Why? What’s the point?
Amid disallowed goals, family secrets, and reproaches from the past, a hilarious and touching portrait emerges of a family torn between the desire to control and the need to let their children fly free.
Victoria is a tender, fierce, and deeply contemporary comedy about parents, children, inherited dreams, and the freedom to make mistakes. Because sometimes, to win, you have to know how to lose.
