Cardboard Boxer

Homeless man living in LA on skid row is offered cash by privileged teens to fight others while being taped. Sounds depressing. However, the story turns when he finds a diary of a young girl. Moving and heartbreaking. Good indie film.

Netflix thought I'd give it 5 stars. Watching it tomorrow. Looking forward to it. Sounds like my kind of movie.
