Film synopsis
'Campeones' plot and success in Spain
Notably, Khan's last venture, Laal Singh Chaddha, was also not accepted for being a copy. Will things change this time?
Campeones revolves around Marco, a basketball coach who, after legal trouble, is assigned the task of training a team of players with intellectual disabilities.
Reluctant at first, Marco soon learns about the team's determination and spirit, leading to a transformative journey for all.
Directed by Javier Fesser, Campeones became the highest-grossing Spanish film of 2018 and won many awards.
