In the tradition of Rocky and City of God, The Kid: Chamaco is a contemporary boxing tale of father and son overcoming vast differences to help train a young Mexican fighter plucked from the streets of Mexico City. The father (Martin Sheen), a U.S. doctor, and his son, a burned-out boxing pro, unite to shape the young Mexican teenager into his country’s new boxing idol. Along the way, all three men discover hidden strengths, and embrace unforeseen destinies.
