El pelotólogo (The footballogist)

Francisco is a 60-year-old "footballogist" who operates on "wounded" sport balls. In his humble street stall in one of Lima’s poorest neighborhoods, the self-appointed doctor repairs around 10 sport balls per day. His sincere joy in fixing his “patients” attracts a variety of people - Dr. Francisco has a solution for everyone!
