China heavyweight

Qi Moxiang, a former boxing star and state coach recruits young fighting talent from the impoverished farms and villages across Sichuan province. A select few boys and girls are sent to national training centers, with the hope of discovering China’s next Olympic heroes. Their rigorous training, teenage trials and family tribulations are expertly intertwined with Coach Qi’s own desire to get back in the ring for one more shot at victory.
