Bruiser Synopsis

Generational violence and toxic masculinity are contrasted with the role of mother, Christian values and forgiveness in the story of 14-year-old Darious trying to find his place among his friends and family. He attends private school paid for by his hard-working yet stern father where he is sometimes bullied. His mother strives to keep the household calm, nurturing Darious as best as she can. When Darious befriends a stranger new to town, the family dynamic begins to unravel. That same stranger is actually Darious' biological father, a man with a reputation for violence. Violence brings violence and soon Darious must reckon with the role nature and nurture play in who you become.—KS at ClassicCoupleAcademy.com
