Based on the smash-hit British film of the same name, a group of local unemployed steel working men come up with their own plan to make some quick cash. After seeing how much their wives enjoy watching male strippers during their “Girls Night Out,” the scene is set and in the process they find renewed self-esteem, the importance of friendship and the ability to have fun. As the guys work through their fears, self-consciousness and anxieties, they come to discover that not only are they stronger as a group, but that the strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face their demons and overcome them. For mature audiences.
