Ciro is a young boxer of Naples. He is a mild boy who plays a violent sport; in his neighborhood, he faces the difficulties of life with tenderness and silent tenacity, like a loyal champion. The movie shows the silence, the breath, the bodies, the rings, the shouts of the baby-fans, Ciro’s tenderness in opposition to the crudity of the world of box.

Marcello Sannino (Portici, Neaples, 1971) made the documentaries Decroux e il mimo corporeo (2003), La Passione Suessana (2004), L’ultima Treves (2007). Now he is making a documentary on Gerardo Marotta, president of the Italian Institute of Philosophical Studies.
