Five years after the acclaimed “Documento Boxe”, which portrays the universe of boxers in Lisbon, Miguel Clara Vasconcelos films once again his main character, Jorge Pina, professional pugilist, who was forced to end his career. His art destroyed his sight, and despite the several surgeries, or because of them, he only has 10% vision on one of his eyes. We follow his daily endeavours to adapt to his new condition, while preparing for a new challenge. Refusing to be considered an “invalid”, Pina reappears in the sports scene as a blind athlete.
