Answer:
Roman Maldonado (Ricardo Darin) was born during a carnival fair held at "Luna de Avellaneda", a sports and social club located in Avellaneda, Buenos Aires province. He is made a member for life, and the club becomes a central part of his life.The club used to have over 8,000 members in its heyday, but in the 2000s membership has dwindled to some 300. The neighbourhood is decaying, the surviving inhabitants are struggling financially and gatherings are hardly what they used to be. To top things off, Roman discovers his wife Veronica is having an affair, and their marriage finds itself at its worst.Together with Amadeo Grimberg (Eduardo Blanco) and Graciela (Mercedes Moran), friends from the club, he must fight for the survival of the place before it is sold off and turned into a casino.The film chronicles the ups and downs of this fight, as well as Amadeo's struggling relationship with Cristina (Valeria Bertuccelli), Roman's family crisis and the difficulties Graciela has after her husband leaves. In the end, a vote to keep the club alive is defeated 33 to 26, and the main characters find themselves parting ways in a bittersweet manner. The ending is however upbeat, as Roman finds hope in finding his old club membership card, and together with Amadeo hints that they will start a new one.
