Emmy® Award-winning screen and stage star John Leguizamo stars and makes his directorial debut in this hard-hitting story of a talented young boxer who must navigate the path between his newfound fame, with all its seductive trappings, and his humble yet proud roots as a Latin growing up in Jackson Heights, Queens.

Surrounded by his childhood friends and an old school trainer, Lex Vargas endures a devastating personal loss before turning professional, eventually signing with a high-profile promoter in order to accelerate his career and get a title shot.

The move brings Lex fame, fortune, a new house and a sexy girlfriend - but threatens to undermine the longtime bonds and proud heritage he shares with his old friends from Queens. -- © HBO Films [More]
