The Ben Affleck and Tye Sheridan-starrer is an adaptation of 2005's best-selling memoir, The Tender Bar by J. R. Moehringer. The movie tells the author's story, who seeks a father figure.

The fatherless J. R. often visits his uncle Charlie at a bar where he works, and he often comes across various customers in whom he finds his father. Meanwhile, his single mother struggles to provide him with everything she missed out on.

She even leaves her father's home, who has always strongly criticized her verbally despite being supportive otherwise. Moehringer, then, tries to move on in his life while trying to pursue his romantic and professional dreams.

However, Uncle Charlie's bar is still a constant in his life where he often pays a visit.
