Two friends struggling with different demons find the strength to overcome the trauma each of them faces, through the human connection of those that matter most.
Wilson who is recovering from alcohol addiction and in the throes of martial conflict, is being trained for a boxing match by his best friend Chris (ex British Forces) who is secretly suffering his own battle with PTSD and going through a messy divorce.
