Synopsis
Ragim Magerramov is the trainer of the strikers at the Lenin Pipe Rolling Mill - on the pitch, that is, not the picket line. For despite the harsh conditions in the factory, industrial action in the Soviet Union is virtually unheard of. Here the unions are busy providing a variety of services for the workers, among which the football club is extremely popular. The film follows the lives of the trainer and his team at work, at home and in their struggle to wrest the Sumgait Town Championship from the seemingly invincible men from the Synthetic Rubber Factory.
