書物を読むことが禁じられた近未来の世界。幼い頃に両親を失ったモンターグは、自分を育ててくれたベイティ隊長のもと、書物を燃やすファイヤーマンとして日々を送っていた。ある日、これまでに見たこともないほどの本が隠されている家を発見してしまう。全ての本を燃やせと隊長から命令が下った直後、家と本の所有者である老婆が“オムニス（ＯＭＮＩＳ）”という謎の言葉を残して、本と共に焼身自殺を遂げる…。

The hot-tempered, unruly players of this pub league soccer team are in dire straits after having lost everything -- their drive, their skills and soon, their playing field. When mysterious Walter Keegan shows up offering to be their coach, captain Bubbles and the rest of his loopy, obnoxious teammates are so desperate to succeed, they agree to give him the job. Drilled into the ground with a fierce discipline they have never known, the team pushes beyond their aches and pains to gain not only redemption on the field, but more importantly, their self-respect.
