Handball was invented in Germany on October 29, 1917. Initially as a women's sport and later as the well-known, fast and competitive game that has clearly become the number two ball sport in Germany after soccer. This film delves deep into the archives and traces the eventful past of handball. It spans the arc from the 1936 Olympic victory to the 1978 and 2007 World Championships right up to the present day. The sensational success of the German handball team, who surprisingly became European champions in Poland in 2016, forms the backdrop.

Over the course of a year, we follow the Raballder handball team, which plays in a regular series in Oslo. The goal is a promotion from the 4th to the 3rd division. Everyone on the team is gay. From curling princesses in the dressing room, they transform into testosterone monsters on the pitch. The players are also fighting a battle against homophobic attitudes on the sports field. With a lot of self-irony and humor, the players make this an entertaining documentary series. We follow the boys in matches against heterosexual teams, take part in doctor visits, gay tournaments, EuroPride in Oslo, football matches, ski races, and celebrations of Norway's National Day. The boys also travel to their home villages where they meet their parents and siblings. One of the players gets his shooting arm destroyed in a car accident.
