Beskrivelse

Scotsman Billy Ferguson is a fanatical Glasgow Blue Crew supporter and a promising prospect on the football field. Just as he's set to become a sports star, however, he's called up for active duty in Afghanistan. There, everything changes for Billy when a hidden explosive injures him and results in the loss of his leg. Back home, Billy has trouble returning to normal life. With the loss of his leg also comes the loss of dreams on the field-but he refuses to give up. Billy endures an ambitious physical therapy routine with the help of a talented therapist named Isabel. He wears a prosthetic leg, and as his condition improves he even earns himself a nickname with football fans-the Tin Boy. As Billy strives to return to the sport he loves, he develops feelings for Isabel. She has become a strength and support in his life, and despite their professional relationship he can't help but feel a romantic attachment. Now, despite all odds, Billy is ready to take his shot at the goal: on the football field and on the playground of love.
