    • Synopsis
    • A man leads a double life. He’s still married to his first wife, where he feels at home. But he’s also married to another, younger woman with whom he has a child. By day, the man lives in one house, at night he lives in the other, and inbetween, somewhere in a gas station, he makes the switch. The situation tares him apart. He often gets anxiety attacks, which happens mostly in the ‘new house’. Coincidence will determine the future in a fatal manner.

      Playing Away from Home is part of an international project initiated by Daniel Gruener, a renowned Mexican director. He asked a group of international directors (including Gaspar Noé & Vincent Gallo) to make a short film that expresses their vision on and feelings for football.
