Follows Maco, a young man orphaned when his parents became the victims of a violent attack, the attackers also raping his younger brother and leaving him nearly catatonic in a mental institution. For his part, Maco has withdrawn almost entirely into himself, paying the bills working as a bouncer at a strip club, filling the rest of his entirely solitary life training in the martial arts so that he can never be victimized again. But everything changes for Maco one fateful night, a night when he encounters a home invasion in progress and decides to intervene. He stops a woman from being raped, knocks the trio of attackers unconscious, and does it all while wearing a mask he took from one of the gang, presumably so that he could not be recognized and targeted himself should any of the gang escape. This would have been the end of the story for Maco, an admirable but isolated event, if not for one simple fact: the intended rape victim was a television reporter, one who praises her savior on national television the next day, triggering visions of super heroes in the mind of Maco’s younger brother, visions that give the young boy hope and focus that lead to a sudden improvement of his condition. Maco’s path seems clear: to save his brother he must become the hero the news has made him out to be.
