Champions
Caroline Van Kerckhoven
2012 - 38 min - Digital vidéo - Couleur - Belgique

In this intimate group portrait, an enthusiastic coach guides us through various boxing matches. We discover that for the victory the young boxers must fight not only with their opponent, but also with their weight, biased judges, the coach and most of all with themselves.
The coach is ambitious and the young boxers dream of becoming a champion, but behind the scenes of this Brussels boxing club you might not find the macho world that you expect.
