For one young teen growing up in Scotland, there are only three things that really matter in life - movies, Celtic Football Club, and a genuine connection. However, two out of three is simply not enough.
After Bobby''s mum loses her battle with cancer, the teen faces a life of loneliness. Abandoned long ago by his alcoholic father, he finds himself under the watchful eye of his stern yet loving aunt, Deirdre. And school life isn''t much better with a group of so-called friends who act more like opponents.
For the lonely teen, there is one possible refuge - an online footballing forum for fans of Celtic FC where he yearns to be one the lads. But despite his best banter, his attempts at camaraderie fall short. As Bobby quickly realizes, like the best footballers, he needs a striking partner - an alternate persona to play off and help him become one of the "bhoys." And so, "Jinky" is born - an embodiment of the father figure Bobby never had.
As his virtual popularity rises, Bobby is oblivious to the one thing that can derail his newfound chance for friendship and acceptance: the return of his biological father. Could his wayward parent''s desire for a relationship bring about the downfall of Jinky? Or will this white lie be the catalyst that brings the estranged father and son closer together?
