Ses professeurs, entraîneurs, amis d’enfance et coéquipiers du Barça, ainsi que des journalistes, des écrivains et des personnalités de l’histoire du football, se réunissent dans un restaurant pour analyser et distinguer la personnalité de Messi, sur et en dehors du terrain, et pour faire le point des moments les plus significatifs de sa vie. Considéré sous l’angle unique d’Alex de la Iglesia, Messi reconstitue l’enfance et l’adolescence du joueur, et ce, dès ses tout premiers pas, avec un ballon toujours à ses pieds, jusqu’à la décision de quitter Rosario pour Barcelone, la séparation de sa famille et la rôle joué dans sa carrière par des personnalités telles que Ronaldinho, Rijkaard, Rexach et Guardiola.

Zakaria Anbari (Zico) has been playing football all his life. He came to Iceland from Morocco to seek his fortune. He starts his own business but it fails to take off after ten years, and Zico goes bankrupt and unable to find work. Left desperate and depressed, Zico decides to start an amateur football team, Africa United, and take them into the semi-professional third division. Initially, Africa United is asked to play in the out-of-division category by the Icelandic Football Association, but they were accepted into the third division after ten years. Zico calls upon immigrants from all-over Iceland, players from Morocco, Nigeria, Colombia, Serbia, Kosovo, Gambia and Guinea to form the team, Africa United. The players migrated to Iceland for various reasons, such as escaping war or to find employment.
