Etched In Pavement is a feature length documentary examining the idea of legacy. The legacies we inherit the moment we’re born into our circumstances, the legacy we create throughout our time on this earth, and ultimately how our legacy is kept alive by those we impact after we’re gone. This is all explored through the weaving paths of two young men from SW Detroit who set out to uplift their worlds in the best way they know how: FIGHTING.

The journeys of Dwane and DMike immerse us in their worlds of youth combat sports, professional boxing, and their Guns Down, Gloves Up street fighting movement. As these intimate paths confront the complexities of family, mentorship and being remembered, we are reminded of the power of legacy and the importance of fighting for something far greater than ourselves.
