Das Herz eines Boxers

Jojo was sentenced by the juvenile court. The punishment: painting walls in an old people's home. So Jojo ends up in Leo's room, who doesn't say a word - until it turns out that Jojo isn't guilty at all, but has taken the punishment for someone else. Their prejudices and expectations begin to crumble and they talk about each other. Jojo talks to Leo about friends who aren't really friends at all and finds out: Leo used to be a boxing legend!

They start talking about being excluded, about injustice, about anger and the big question marks that hover over their lives. A friendship develops that challenges Leo and Jojo to jump over their shadows.
