Summary of 2 Strangers and a Foosball

The smaller and simpler game of foosball was more adequate for a modest production, it has a connection with innocence (seen as a big toy for children), and the table itself is an intimate space, more personal and less theatrical than pool.

Because of these connections to innocence, purity and childhood, the characters of this movie have a chance to become children for a night and escape the drama of their regular lives. Duke (Tim Rozon) is able to become the big kid of the party, admired by everyone, instead of the little man he feels in his job and his life. What he does not expect is that two outsiders will appear and shake up his controlled little world: Julianne and Anthony (France Viens and Randy Thomas), who arrive by accident at the foosball party.

Anthony feels the urge to compete and win, so he stays for the tournament, neglecting Julianne's wishes. In order to get back at him, and beat as many competitive men as possible, Julianne decides to join the tournament as well and becomes Duke's teammate. Instead of the trophy or money at stake, Duke will compete for Julianne's attention and love. Therefore, drama has arrived, and, along with it, romance.

Two different worlds, seemingly strangers to each other, collide and connect at the foosball table.

Trivia: The title derives from "2 Brothers and a Stranger," the main hustle that Fast Eddie Felson (Paul Newman) teaches Vincent (Tom Cruise) in Martin Scorsese's picture "The Color of Money."

In English with optional subtitles in French or Spanish.
