CGiii Comment
Sexual desire and loneliness...sounds like a typical gay drama.
It's not...all is not as it seems.
Highly original and deeply moving.
This should have been a huge film.
Important and impressive.

Trainer Marty Goldberg has been stuck working on the fringes of the professional circuit far too long. Searching for a way out, he discovers Tommy, a young man with raw talent to burn. Outside the ring however, Tommy displays a self-destructive streak that could end his career before it begins. Marty works with Tommy to tame that streak.
