A former bowling prodigy, now a alcoholic amputee with a prosthetic hand, discovers a naive Amish man with a natural talent for the sport. He sees the young man as his ticket back to the big leagues and takes him on the road to compete in a high-stakes tournament. Their journey is filled with con artists, rival bowlers, and the sleazy world of professional bowling.
