Synopsis:
Man To Man is a hard-hitting, emotional rollercoaster starring SAG/Independent Spirit Award-nominated David Harewood MBE (Homeland, Blood Diamond). The film examines a Father / Son relationship as Malcolm brings his son Dion to a boxing ring to ‘make a man’ out of him. Tensions fly high as Dion decides he cannot be the kind of man his father wants him to be, and refuses to learn how to fight.
The two go head to head in the ring, only it is not a battle of fists. They are locked in a battle of words, until the impossible happens - they actually start listening to each other. After so many years of avoidance, Malcolm and Dion finally let it all out to decide: what does it mean to truly be a man in today’s world?
