The Underdog

In a broken world, rebellion meets survival in unprecedented times. Joey, a fierce teenage boxer with a chip on his shoulder, finds his world shattered when ravenous man-eating bugs bring America to its knees. As chaos descends, staff at the orphanage where Joey grew up abandon the children under their care, leaving them to fend for themselves. Torn between his desire for freedom and the heavy weight of responsibility, Joey steps up, determined to protect the children who have no one else. With the odds stacked against him, he must navigate a nightmarish landscape teeming with predators, all while brawling with his own fears and insecurities. Fueled by courage and grit, Joey learns that true strength lies not only in fists but in sacrifice, and that growing up quickly comes at a terrifying price. The fight for life is only the beginning, and the scariest monsters lurk within.
