A true story based on the life of deaf UFC fighter Matt Hamill, 'The Hammer' tells the story of what it takes to be a champion, on and off the mat.

'Hamill' is a sports drama depicting the struggles and successes Matt faces on the way to becoming a champion. Raised among those with the ability to hear, Matt later finds himself no less an outsider amidst the Deaf Community. Through sheer determination, he uses his perceived disability as an asset, and becomes both the first deaf wrestler to win a National Collegiate Championship and an inspirational force to the hearing and deaf alike.
