WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Alonso Santos (Corrigan) is an aspiring mixed martial artist who wants to enter the leagues as a professional MMA fighter.

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Cassius Corrigan directs, writes and stars in this unique and powerful study of mental illness which holds back none of its punches (or kicks, for that matter).
