Bad boy street kid Johnny Sanchez feeds his pride during his prison sentence by fighting in “gladiator wars” promoted by his warden, Harbin Rask. The little money he wins from this brutal life, he sends to his past love, and their son, Oscar, who he hasn’t seen in five years. The warden, gives Johnny a second chance at life, by sponsoring him to fight in The Red Canvas, a professional MMA tournament ruled by General Insou Krang, an ex-Vietcong General, now operating as a corrupt mogul in the biotech industry. Once released from prison and faced with the plight of his broken family, Johnny finds that raw talent is not enough. Heroes must learn to fight with weapons forged in the heart.
