On a worn down mat in a wrestling gym, two men embrace. Bodies intertwined, faces and limbs pressed hard against one another, one tries to devour the other. Deconstructing stigmas of violence and masculinity in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), the film acts as a short sensory meditation on the intimacy of physical touch.
