L'histoire est basée sur la vie de Parinya Charoenphol, dite Nong Toom, une boxeuse de muay-thaï katoï. Le film relate l'enfance de Nong Toom, enfant sensible, aimant jouer avec les filles et pour cela souffre-douleur de certains de ses camarades. Adolescente, alors encore considérée comme un homme, elle accepte le défi de participer à un combat de boxe qui lui montre que la volonté est plus forte que les aléas de la vie. Elle décide de s'entraîner sérieusement et, après bien des difficultés, progresse jusqu'à devenir championne, tout cela sans renier son identité de genre qui lui permet de se démarquer de ses adversaires à son avantage. Mais le désir profond qui l'anime est de transitionner, ce qu'elle fait au sommet de sa carrière.
