Six unemployed steelworkers in Sheffield, facing poverty and hopelessness, are inspired to make money by forming a male striptease act. Despite having no experience, no rhythm, and various personal insecurities, they commit to going "the full monty" for their one-night performance. Their hilarious rehearsals and personal struggles reveal their vulnerabilities and ultimately help them regain their self-respect and camaraderie.
