Beautiful Boxer
Beautiful Boxer, the acclaimed debut of Thai director Ekachair Uekrongtham, brilliantly captures the intensity of an underdog sports saga and weaves it with the poignant, impassioned drama of finding one's identity in the telling true-life story of Parinya Charoenphol, a transgendered kick boxer whose winnings from fighting in the ring funded his sex-change operation. The film tracks Charoenphol, affectionately known as Nong Toom, from his childhood, where he first discovered his feminine side, to his youth in a monastery to an arduous training program and eventually his championship bouts, where he would don makeup and drag.
