Synopsis: Jinichi Hirooka (Koichi Sato) is a former boxer. He lost a boxing match by an unfair decision and he then moved to the United States. After 40 years, he returns to Japan and happens to meet Shogo Kuroki (Ryusei Yokohama) in a bar. Shogo is a boxer, who is going through a hard time because he also lost a match due to an unfair decision. Soon, Shogo gets knocked down by Jinichi for the first time in his life.
