In the East Side slums of New York City, Danny Kenny, his brother Eddie and Peggy Nash, all childhood friends from the tenements, pursue different paths to climb their way out of the gutter. Danny is content driving a truck until his brother, who dreams of writing a symphony of the city, needs money for music school. To earn Eddie's tuition, Danny accepts a boxing match, where he is spotted by fight manager Scotty MacPherson. Meanwhile, Peggy, seduced by the vision of her name in lights, becomes the dance partner of the despotic Murray Burns, and the pair set out on the vaudeville circuit. Desperate to win Peggy back, Danny decides to make something of himself and accepts Scotty's offer to be his manager. As Danny wins bout after bout, Peggy's tour ends, and she agrees to give up dancing for Danny. When the dance team is offered a contract in the big time, however, Peggy foresakes Danny to pursue fame. Danny, confident that winning the championship will win him Peggy, insists on a match with the mean and dirty boxer Cannonball Wales. To make sure that he wins the title, Wales puts rosin on his boxing gloves, thus blinding Danny. As she listens to the match on the radio, Peggy hears of Danny's pummeling, quits the dance team and returns to Danny, only to be sent away by Scotty. Blinded by the fight, Danny feels no self-pity and opens up a newstand. When Eddie, frustrated by his struggle for artistic recognition, is on the verge of selling out his talents, Danny inspires him to keep fighting. Eddie's symphony is finally accepted for performance at Carnegie Hall, and Peggy, now miserable and alone, goes to hear his debut. In a moving speech, Eddie dedicates his work to his brother, and after the concert, Peggy seeks out Danny at the newsstand, and the two are reconciled. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)
