Jean-Pierre Junior Bauwens, junior lightweight world boxing champion, comes from a very special family. The 23 year old boy is the oldest of seven siblings, four of whom suffer from autism. Junior doesn’t just fight for glory but for a better future for his family. Boxing could be his ticket to buying them a bigger house where everybody would be happy. Then tragedy strikes. Junior shows the tough clash between a loving family and cold reality.
