Torn between his desire to live up to his family’s expectations and the limited possibilities Germany offers him, the young Cameroonian Ben fights his way through Berlin's shady boxing underworld, dreaming of one day returning home as world champion. Five years later, he finally gets his chance. Being back in Cameroon gives him new perspective on his life in Germany and he realizes how much he has lost forever by moving to Europe.
