Back in the Day

2016 Drama

Anthony Rodriguez (DeMeo) is a half-Italian, half-Puerto Rican teenager growing up on the streets of Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. His childhood wasn’t easy -- his father was abusive and an alcoholic, and he lost his supportive mother at an early age. Anthony decides to exercise his demons through boxing, and is taken under the wing of the local mob boss, Enzo DeVino (Madsen). Enzo sets him up with a trainer, Eddie "Rocks" Trevor (Glover), who turns him into a contender. As he grows, he goes up against impossible odds, including Gino (Baldwin), the head of the mob, to become a champion.
