Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Documentary filmmaker Yung Chang follows dedicated boxing coach Qi Moxiang on his mission to shape promising athletes from rural China into Olympic pugilists. Paralleling the story of the young Olympic hopefuls is that of their 30-something coach, who himself is training for an upcoming fight that, if won, will restore his honor in the ring.
