After being beaten and humiliated by the school bully and his gang, Rod is determined to fight back. Hearing about Judo from his friend, Mark Takahashi, a Nisei (Japanese-American), Rod joins the Judo school and is soon deep in a strange and fascinating new world.To his surprise Rod learns that Judo is, first of all, a sport with a strong and inspiring code of sportsmanship.
