Day Of The Fight, the directorial debut of actor Jack Huston, has been set as the opening film of the 31st edition of the Raindance Film Festival, running October 25 — November 4.
The film will screen as part of the opening ceremony at Curzon Mayfair Cinema in London. Directed by Huston from a screenplay he also wrote, the pic follows Mikey, a once-celebrated boxer, who, on the day of his first fight since leaving prison, takes a redemptive journey through his past and present, putting his own life at risk due to a medical condition only he knows about.
Over the course of the day, Mikey visits influential figures from his life, encouraging him to overcome his checkered past. Synopsis reads: After a fight for the ages at Madison Square Garden, a twist of events reveals that this day was never really about boxing for Mikey.
