Futebol, em Pau Seco, é o que move ou paralisa a cidade. O estádio fica ao lado do cemitério. Rubinho, a possível salvação dos paussequenses, é o jogador revelação da cidade, mas sofre uma humilhação pública, ao revelar seu medo de marcar um gol em frente ao túmulo do falecido ídolo Bugio. Desaparece, e só tem um desejo - vingança. Trata-se de um momento decisivo em sua vida. Com humor e sutileza, questões éticas, políticas, sociais, familiares, amorosas, o bem e o mal são discutidos.
