A Story about Forgiveness, Love, and Redemption
Based on the unfair life of Richard "Rich" Soul, a former world boxing champion, now drunken husband and father who was falsely accused of murder. After squandering all his riches from boxing, Richard has no money to hire a good lawyer or fight the case. Despite his innocence, he is sentenced to Death Row, awaiting execution by electrocution.
It is then that Richard finds holes in his case that he ultimately believes can lead to his freedom, but first he must learn to appreciate all the things in life he took for granted.
