Father Alexey (a member of the Auctioneer group Oleg Garkusha), an elderly, eccentric and kind priest, spends his days alone, except for visiting his sick brother and his daughter. One day he receives an assignment to visit a deaf girl Violetta (Vasilisa Perelygina) in prison, falsely accused of setting fire to a church. When Father Alexei recognizes her as an orphan, whom he baptized as Barbara in infancy, a new meaning appears in his life.

The film is about a new generation of Russian football players. For three years, the authors of the picture watched the heroes' paths to big football: hopes and victories, difficult trials and injuries, inevitable disappointments and sacrifices – all for the sake of fulfilling a common dream of "being in the game" at the 2018 World Cup. The heroes of the film are Alexander Golovin, Roman Zobnin, Alexander Selikhov, Magomed Ozdoev, the Miranchuki brothers.
