The story is set in the present day.
Sport IS still absolutely rife with homophobia, but the boxing session our protagonist goes to is specifically LGBT friendly.
The teenager’s contemporaries from school are homophobic and violent.
So I think the objective goal is: learning to defend himself physically from school bullies via learning to box with the help of a new friend and ally whilst simultaneously coming to terms with his sexuality because he can’t learn to use his body (box) until he can look at himself in the mirror, look himself in the eye, accept himself.
The visual at the end is: we see our protagonist smile for the first and only time in the film. We know he’s going to be alright because he’s standing taller and is facing the world, and himself, with newfound confidence, strength, and optimism.
How to say this through the logline I really don’t know : / Help!
