Headlock

In distant echoes of cheering crowds and the weight of a legacy, Catheryn Balboa-Rocky Balboa's daughter-walks in the shadow of a story greater than her own. Alongside Adonis Creed, she witnesses victories, defeats, and the continuation of a lineage forged in the ring, but carries within her the strangeness of not feeling part of that glorious destiny.

In her daily life between Adrian's, the family restaurant, and the streets of Philadelphia, she searches for an identity that isn't just an extension of her father. It is in this space of vulnerability that enigmatic figures emerge: a man with a murky past and his gigantic, silent son, who awaken premonitions and buried memories.

As tension mounts, the return of old ghosts forces father and daughter to confront ancient scars, paving the way for conflicts of blood, honor, and heritage. More than a boxing narrative, Headlock is an intimate portrait of a young woman trying to understand who she is amidst the struggle between glory and silence, between the weight of a last name and the urgent need to be seen.
