Stay Down is an explosive, short drama in which the bond between a father and son is tested by addiction, betrayal, and a fierce, complicated loyalty. Set against the pressure-cooker worlds of boxing and stand-up comedy, the film explores how love can curdle into control - and how one fracture in a family can ripple outward with devastating consequences.
