Plot summary

A cameraman gets injured by a football player during a game and goes to the hospital, where his cunning brother-in-law (who happens to be a lawyer) convinces him to pretend that his legs have been paralyzed so they can receive a huge indemnity from the insurance company. Of course, the insurance company's men suspect that the paralysis is a fake one, so a big "game" begins.—Chris Makrozahopoulos
