My Malyshki: An Ivan Drago Story

Owen Hart is a nineteen year old boy running away from his alcoholic father on the night of his high school graduation when he, by chance, takes shelter in the boxing gym of Ivan Drago, the disgraced former Soviet heavyweight boxer with a score to settle....and a broken heart.

As Ivan takes Owen into his home and introduces him to a world where boxing, Eastern European simplicity and the joy of a lovingly dysfunctional family all co-mingle, he starts to realize that perhaps it is more than just the joy of having an adopted son and star pupil to train that he loves about him.

Maybe...just maybe...it could be a love he's never had before.

The only hassle getting in the way? His son Viktor also begins to grow feelings for his new stepbrother, and now it comes down to a decision:

Will Owen choose the father or the son?
