An old bowling prodigy, Roy Munson, is down on his luck. After a big championship opportunity turns into a monumental disaster that ends his career, Roy finds himself trapped in a world of bad luck and mediocrity, complete with his eccentric roommate and his unmistakable mustache. One day, his life takes an unexpected turn when he meets a young man named Ishmael, a talented yet naive bowler whose skill is so impressive that it would make even the most skeptical take notice.

Roy sees in Ishmael a chance for redemption and a path back to his lost glory. Thus, the two form an unconventional duo and embark on a journey to turn Ishmael into a champion. But it’s not all that simple, as the arrival of an attractive and cunning woman, who has her own agenda, sparks a whirlwind of hilarious and complicated situations. As their bond strengthens, rivalries and obstacles also arise on the road to the championship.

Laughter, crazy moments on the lanes, and lessons about friendship and redemption intertwine in this unique comedy. The film is marked by its absurd humor and extreme situations, while exploring the ups and downs of success and the importance of authenticity. At the end of the day, Roy and Ishmael will learn that sometimes, true triumph is not in victory, but in the journey shared.
