It is about the life of a laborer who put his dreams on hold to support/raise his family. He has dreams of entering the British open and win the prize money and the ups and downs of that journey. He isn't very good and banned from the open. However he does sneak back in, in disguise with false names - and gets caught. The struggles with family life due do his pursuit of winning. I don't want to give anything away... it is a great movie.
