STRONGER THAN SURVIVAL: A Boxing Film About Resilience, Recovery, and Redemption features James, the writer, producer, and lead actor. This short film explores addiction and how to overcome it and thrive. As someone in recovery, James understands the experience firsthand, which is why this film is being made. The intention is to help people identify they have an addiction and then help them find the courage to heal.
The Story: The protagonist is a fighter, not just in the ring, but in life. He’s beaten down over and over again, facing setbacks that seem impossible to overcome—until he does something many struggle with: he asks for help. The help he finds comes from a power greater than himself, leading him toward recovery, hope, and redemption. This is a story for anyone who has ever felt lost, broken, or defeated. It’s about the strength it takes to get back up and fight another round and the courage to admit one can’t do it alone.
