The true story of eccentric New York table tennis pro Marty Reisman.
Shoe salesman Marty Mauser has only one goal in life: to win the table tennis world championship and thus ascend to the Olympus of celebrated athletes, among whom he secretly already counts himself. But when he is defeated by the Japanese player Endo and his innovative bat, his dream hangs in the balance. Can the broke athlete raise the money for the trip to the next tournament? Or will his dream end in his uncle's shoe shop?
In this triumphant and thrilling story, directorial prodigy Josh Safdie takes us on a cinematic journey around the world – through 1950s New York, Paris, London, Cairo and Tokyo – as Marty, played by DUNE star Timothée Chalamet, forges his own path to success and ultimately discovers the true meaning of legacy.
