Synopsis
Down on his luck, Adam Cardinal Jr is stuck in the same pattern of pathetic. Manager of a crappy movie theatre and on the verge of eviction from his apartment shared with his best friend Benny. In desperate need of a change in his life, believing that change might come with buying his dad’s old bowling alley. Adam’s new dream is quickly thwarted by Sarah, the daughter of Adam’s Sr’s greatest bowling rival, determined to block Adam from buying the alley. The two quickly decide to let the upcoming bowling finals decide the fate of the Alley. While Adam has inherited his father’s talent for bowling, it’s not enough and Adam’s forced to turn to “The Duke”, a notorious local bowler and drunk, as their bowling mentor.
