“It all starts with two men. One is the well-intentioned owner of a pet store called The Wine Shop who referees for a local girls’ soccer league. The other is a forensic plumber, a crude and offensive man, whose daughter is called offside in a soccer match, making her goal ineligible. And, as you can imagine, he does not take this well.
It leads to an amazingly funny set of events that quickly get out of control, from fighting over a lemur, to being branded as terrorists. They travel to Cuba, Somalia, Yemen, and China, bringing about only positive outcomes despite the fact that they hate each other. They have to run from the police, from hungry bears, and from a terrorist dressed as Chuck E Cheese. They encounter pirates, Donald Trump, the Mossad, and a secret black opps team that does not exist. In case this does not sound improbable enough the plot twists also include a nudist cruise ship, an insulin pump, a rare baseball card, and a bid for the Presidency. And I didn’t stop laughing through every single outrageous antic. ”
