Film Synopsis

Casablanca Driver is convinced that he is destined to be the greatest boxer of all time.  In fact he will go down in history as the worst...  Through an improbable conspiracy of circumstances, Casa is put into the ring to face the champion Jimmy La Renta.  If he survives one round, it will be a miracle.  No one knows anything about him or can understand a word that he says.  His story began when, as a baby, he was abandoned by his parents at a boxing hall...
