Streets of Gold (1986)
Der russische Jude und Boxchampion Alek Neumann hatte einst seinen Trainer verprügelt und findet sich nun in seiner neuen Heimat, den USA, nicht zurecht. Seine Seele pflegt er meistens mit Wodka. Die Küche eines schäbigen Hotels ist die vorläufige Endstation des abgehalfterten Stars. Doch plötzlich wittert er noch einmal seine Chance. Zwei junge Boxer scheinen sein Talent geerbt zu haben. Er sieht ihre Klasse und er glaubt an sie. Mit bedingungsloser Bessesenheit trainiert er sie für den großen Kampf...
