Synopsis
The year is 1970. Three and a half years have elapsed since Muhammad Ali was stripped of his title, convicted of draft evasion, given a $10,000 fine, and five years imprisonment. His passport is revoked, he is banned in all 50 states and unable to work in the field for which he had no equal. The door on his illustrious career seems all but shut. But in Atlanta, Georgia, an astute white businessman, a visionary black senator, and a progressive Jewish mayor join forces to make the impossible possible. Ali's Comeback: The Untold Story is a riveting tale about several bold and fearless men who came together to make it possible for the greatest athlete of the 20thCentury to emerge from the shadows of the boxing world.
