In this heartwarming comedy from the 90s, we follow the story of a young man who, trapped in his world of dreams and fantasies, imagines himself as a great martial arts hero. The protagonist, a shy and somewhat lonely boy named Barry, lives in his own reality where he becomes the apprentice of the legendary Chuck Norris, who is not only his idol but also his savior from the insecurities of daily life. Barry yearns to be brave and strong, but at school, he is a victim of bullying and struggles to fit in.
As the days go by, Barry begins to develop his skills in martial arts, guided by his imagination and his invaluable encounters with Chuck, who seems to emerge from his mind to help him face the challenges of his real life.
