BEAUTIFUL BOXER
SYNOPSIS
A determined young man from a village rises to the top ranks of the kickboxing world despite his equally strong determination to become a woman. Wonderful story, impressive action and a fascinating twist on transgenderism.
REVIEW
Based on the true story of a Thailand’s transvestite kickboxer, Beautiful Boxer is a bright, original, funny, fast-paced and vivid drama of one young man’s determination to both succeed as a kickboxing champion and live his life as a woman. Nong Toom is a handsome but poor village boy who, despite his affection for woman’s clothing and make-up wants to join the ranks of the great kickboxers. That journey along with his gradual transformation into a woman is told with great understanding. Laughed at by audiences and fellow boxers, Nong Toom remains steadfast as he rises to the top of the brutal sport all the while adding feminine touches to himself. Not your typical trans film, but a highly charged drama of determination and self awareness. (Thai, English and Japanese with English subtitles)
