The film portrays Ayub Kalule, the boxer from Uganda who was "the most famous guest worker in Denmark" in the late 1970s. The film opens on a deserted, floodlit boxing ring, and on the soundtrack the buzz of the spectators can be heard. Then Kalule is introduced by the narrator, and the film comprises four blocks: an interview with the subject, scenes from the gym (including an interview with trainer Børge Krogh) and extensive reports from Kalule's two bouts in 1977 and 1978 against the powerful Americans Paladin and Seales. In the fourth, final block Sugar Ray Seales talks about his defeat by Kalule and the latter's prospects in the ring. The two dramatic bouts are shot by two cameras from low, close angles by the ringside. Leth comments on the visuals in a matter-of-fact narrative in continuation of the acute, sober commentary to En forårsdag i Helvede.
