BILLY INFANTE IS AN ANGRY AND TROUBLED YOUNG MAN WHO SEES LIFE THROUGH A DARK LENS. BORN IN A BLUE-COLLAR NEIGHBORHOOD, HE, AS MANY BEFORE HIM, TURNS TO BOXING AS A WAY OUT. HIS VIEW OF LIFE, COLORED BY THE PHILADELPHIA NEIGHBORHOOD OF PORT RICHMOND, SHAPES HIM JUST AS SURELY AS IF HE WERE ON A POTTERS' WHEEL. THIS IS A STORY ABOUT FAMILY, RACE RELATIONS IN LOVE AND IN SPORT, TRUE FRIENDS AND FALSE FRIENDS, AND OVERCOMING OUR BASEST OF INSTINCTS, OF HAVING THE COURAGE TO DO THE RIGHT THING, AND TO HELL WITH THE CONSEQUENCES. ABOUT A MAN WHO FINDS REDEMPTION, A DIFFERENT PATH, AND THE POWER OF LOVE. YOU KNOW THIS GUY. WE ALL DO.
