About Boxer's Story
Wah Sang was a boxing champion seven years ago. He now works at a garage and cares for his seven-year-old son Henry. They live a small apartment and Wah spends much of his time gambling and drinking. Henry wants Wah, whom he addresses by that name him to return to boxing, but Wah is hesitant because he suffered a brain injury.
Directed by Ivan Lai Kai-Ming, Boxer's Story leans on a strong ensemble — Yuen Biao, Eric Tsang Chi-Wai, Lam Suet — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2004.
