Irma ‘The Butterfly’ Testa spent her childhood training to achieve her dream: to win an Olympic gold medal in boxing, escaping the poorest, most crime-ridden neighborhoods in Naples. But when the most pivotal fight of her life leaves her facing failure, Irma must find a way back to herself-and decide whether life outside the boxing ring can fulfill her dreams as much as life within it.
