In a bleak attic in Munich

we find Ju?rgen "The Rock" living and training. The ageing German ex-professional boxer eschews women and alcohol

earning his meager living as a pub bouncer. He is entirely on his own

forced to train in city parks and in the dark attic with his African trainer. From a call shop

he has been phoning matchmakers in the U.S.A. This former middleweight champion has a dream: he wants to make a comeback.
