Thirteen-year-old Antoine is destined to become a boxer. He's on the brink of realizing his first dream: To win the title of French champion. His father, a former promising boxer, is an angry man. Ever since an accident left him an invalid, he has made life impossible for all those around him. When he tells his son that he couldn't give a damn about his upcoming final, Antoine takes off for Paris.
