Pugilistic Soul

"Pugilistic Soul" is a short boxing drama, starring Patrick Walker, that delves into the intense backstage moments leading up to a pivotal fight, exploring the internal struggles that go beyond the physical rigors of the sport.

For years, a tight-knit neighborhood has thrived in peace, thanks to a small community safety team led by Mason, a family man and software developer committed to protecting his neighbors through vigilance and de-escalation. Alongside partners Maya and Tony, Mason works to keep violence at bay—until a sudden string of armed robberies rattles the community’s sense of security. When one crime hits painfully close to home, Mason’s resolve hardens. As the team searches for answers, Mason uncovers an unexpected adversary with a personal vendetta, forcing him to fight not just for his neighborhood, but for the life and legacy he’s worked so hard to build.

TOGETHER

When a wave of armed robberies shatters the peace of a once-safe neighborhood, a devoted community leader is forced to confront a personal enemy determined to destroy everything he’s built.
