Synopsis

Ismail Abdoul is a talented young boxer, ready to make it to the top. He has found the love of his life, Sylvie, and makes a good living as a bouncer. But when the opportunity for more money - and more power - arises, he seizes it. Soon he and his men control all the club doors in town, as well as the drug trade behind them. Ismail becomes the new sensation: a living legend, both in the ring and out. Finally, he gets the respect and love he always wanted. Blinded by success, he gradually becomes entangled in a web of his own lies and violent actions. The added pressure from the police drives a wedge between him and everyone he holds dear, including Sylvie. He will now have to fight the ultimate battle: against himself.
