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.

Celeste Talbert (Sally Field), the longtime star of the daytime drama The Sun Also Sets, is targeted by her ambitious co-star Montana Moorehead (Cathy Moriarty); Montana connives to supplant Celeste as the show's star by promising sexual favors to its producer, David Seton Barnes (Robert Downey, Jr.). To make the audience hate Celeste's character, Montana and David come up with a last-minute plot change in which she will accidentally kill a young, destitute deaf-mute, played by the newly-cast Lori Craven (Elisabeth Shue). Despite the strong objections of Head Writer Rose Schwartz (Whoopie Goldberg) and Celeste herself, the scene plays out, but is interrupted by Celeste's recognition of Lori as her real-life niece.
