Looking for Eric (2009)
Eric ist am Arsch! Im Job läuft nichts mehr nach Plan und zuhause mit den beiden Stiefsöhnen erst recht nicht mehr. Doch das wäre vermutlich alles noch zu verkraften, hätte der Fußballfan nicht vor 25 Jahren seinen größten Fehler begangen und die Liebe seines Lebens, Lily, sitzen gelassen. Es gibt nur einen Mann, der Erics Leben wieder auf Vordermann bringen kann: Eric Cantona, der legendäre Stürmer von Manchester United. Statt auf dem Poster an der Wand zu hängen, sitzt der Franzose plötzlich leibhaftig in der Küche seines Namensvetters - und die "Operation Cantona", an der auch Erics Freunde tatkräftig beteiligt sind, kann beginnen. Denn von seinem Idol lernt Eric endlich, dass man auch mal 'non' sagen muss, um ein Ja zu bekommen. Vor allem aber bekommt er die lang ersehnte zweite Chance bei der Liebe seines Lebens.
