What's The Story?
Misguided, and a little selfish, could best describe Robert’s reasons to win back his ex-girlfriend Emma. But with the aid of his best mate, Stephen he ends up in his local – the refuge of the heartbroken Irish male, so it would seem. So amidst the booze and the girls, a plan is hatched among his friends to win Emma back.
With Emma working as a sports journalist, covering an American Football tournament in Ireland, it is the perfect vehicle for the lads to get Robert back in with Emma. However, they do not realise that this might be more work than they realise. And worse still, the quarterback from the American team has set his sights on the lovely Emma too. The race is on, get a team together, beat the Americans at their own game and win Emma back. As Robert comments “It’s like Rugby, but with pads! How hard can it be, right?”
So with half-assed determination, an Irish team is assembled. The Twisters are all set to enter the Celtic Cup... too bad they are a pack of no-hopers with varying degrees of delusions of grandeur. Thankfully, at a most opportune moment, in steps a man to save the team from total disgrace. (Well, most of it!) Dermot O’Brien spent his early years coaching American Football, and was about to take his team and star players all the way into the big leagues – until his greed got the better of him.
And it is with insults, a mind to bend the rules and a blatant disregard for his player’s health that Dermot brings the Twisters through to face their rivals. But there is something else to Dermot’s determination to beat the Americans, not just a sense of goodwill. In the final showdown can the players pull themselves together to play the Americans on their own terms? Can Dermot pull himself out of the shadow that was his disgrace that was twenty years ago? Will Robert win Emma back?
Of course not! What do you think this is? A movie!
