Ex-boxer and former alcoholic, Vian (Sean Bean), just got out of prison after serving time for a fatal accident and is desperate for a fresh start. He moves in with his sister Bethley (Kate Walsh) and her young son, Jimmy, with the understanding that he will not drink at all. He also finds work at a local pizza parlor owned by Roland (Tom Arnold). When Vian meets and begins dating the beautiful, successful Jolene (Eva Longoria), for the first time he knows love and commitment through his family and his new relationship. However, when an unfortunate accident jeopardizes the new life Vian has created, he must decide if he will revert back to the thug he once was or fight for the people he's grown to love. Fighting Demons is a hopeful and compelling story of redemption that demonstrates what can happen when you leave the past behind and live for the present.
