520    When Bobby is unwillingly outed he turns to boxing, 
       finding a hero in Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, but when 
       Pacquiao publicly denounces homosexuality, Bobby must 
       discover a hero within himself. 
520    Bobby's motto is self preservation. That's how he survived
       his notoriously violent high school unscathed. Being out 
       and queer would put an unavoidable target on his back, 
       especially in a Filipino community that frowns on 
       homosexuality. When Bobby is unwilling outed, he no longer
       has the luxury of being invisible. A vicious encounter has
       him scrambling for a new way to survive: by fighting back.
       Inspired by champion Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, he 
       takes up boxing and challenges his tormentor. Then 
       Pacquiao publicly declares his stance against queer people,
       and Bobby's faith-- in his hero and in himself-- is shaken
       to the core. -- adapted from jacket
