Inspired by the mythological journey of Kon-Tiki, they manage to construct a DIY raft on their own and cross a stretch of the Mediterranean Sea in an attempt get to the fateful match on time.
During their three-day journey, their friendship is put to the test, they savor the taste of first love, and discover character traits and abilities in themselves that they never knew they had. The innocent adventure evolves into a coming-of-age journey, and the adventure of a lifetime.
