Daryl has spent much of his life in East Baltimore navigating homelessness, violence, and the loss of people close to him. The film follows him as he finds steadier ground through a recreational ice hockey team and the guidance of a mentor who takes an active role in his day-to-day life. Rather than treating hockey as a novelty, the film uses it as the frame for a broader story about how a neighborhood shaped by poverty and violence can also produce unexpected support systems. Interviews and footage from the rink and the streets of East Baltimore trace Daryl's routine, his setbacks, and the small, specific ways his mentor intervenes, from showing up consistently to pushing him toward structure he has not had before. The film stays close to Daryl's own account of his history rather than narrating over him, and it resists a tidy redemption arc in favor of showing resilience as something built day by day, unevenly, alongside people willing to stick around.
