The Hail Mary
A broken man finds purpose when a determined nun recruits him to start a football team at an all-boys school.
Sister Kathleen (Marsha Dietlein Bennett) sees divine purpose in Jake Bauer (Daniel Roebuck), a broken man needing redemption, and offers him a job at an all-boys school. She convinces the reluctant Bauer to create a football team, and as he evolves into a father figure he confronts past failures and reignites his faith in this feel-good, funny story in the vein of The Bells of Saint Mary and other classic faith-based sports films.
