Love can begin in the most unlikely of places, including a "mom and pop shop" wrestling league. John and Bret, two twenty–something athletes who separately endured abuse in their pasts, do what they know—they beat up themselves and each other—until one hero–seeking boy turns their lives around with the question, "Why do you hurt each other?"
John's heartache begins with a bad relationship when he's seventeen, and Bret, having had enough with dating in the Pacific Northwest, tries his luck here with this Mid–Atlantic league.
Tender moments unfold for John and Bret. The rookies are also brought together by a ragtag team of oddball wrestlers who, lonely themselves, know what all boys know: deep down, we all just want to be held.
