Following Lady Candy who battles to reunite with her two daughters kidnapped by her ex-husband through the border into the U.S. following their divorce due to domestic violence; Baby Star who was once the star of fight scenes but has fallen from grace since the birth of her child and Mini Sirenita who walks home from factory every day feeling the fear of being killed or kidnapped, the film paints a brave and powerful picture of women’s solidarity by portraying the lives of these three women whose fights are not limited to the confines of the ring.
