The documentary film charts the football career of Jimmy 'Jinky' Johnstone, a Celtic and Scotland hero of the '60s and '70s. In what he describes as "an immense honour", Billy Connolly narrates the true-life story of one of the sporting world's greatest icons: a man known as "the flea" in the East and "Jinky" in the West, this is a tale of exhilaration and desperation, of joy and immense sadness; of a man who had the world literally at his feet, until that world turned upside down.
