Plot

The Danish wine seller Christian receives the divorce papers of his wife Anna, who works in Argentina as a sports agent. Since their 16-year-old son Oscar is supposed to visit Anna, Christian decides to fly along to convince his wife not to divorce him. However, she already has a relationship with the Argentinian football star Juan Diaz, who is about to play the most important Argentinean soccer game, the Superclásico. Christian gets to know Argentine culture and people during his stay: The elderly but passionate housekeeper Fernanda, with whom he has a short affair and the odd winegrower Mendoza, who meets a fellow sufferer in Christian.

Meanwhile, son Oscar meets the travel guide Veronica. He runs away from home and starts a relationship with her. When the relationship comes to light, there are problems that can be resolved with Christian's help. When Anna and Juan Diaz have their first arguments, Christian and Anna get closer again. Only then does Christian, changed by the Argentinean culture, begin to let go of Anna. After the marriage of Juan Diaz and Anna, Christian goes happily home to Denmark.
