A documentary, photographed in black-and-white, with a hip jazz soundtrack, looks at the boys and coach of a small but accomplished boxing club near Portland, Oregon. The film focuses on the coach, former Olympic contender and pro athlete Andy Minsker, and tells not only the story of his devotion to his young athletes, but hints at childhood obsticles which may have prompted Minsker, as an adult, to give his students guidance, support and love with such enthuasism and dedication.

I'm clearly no canceller, but it's no longer possible to review this without addressing the many accusations against Weber of molesting/coercing nudity from his subjects. It would be one thing to write admiringly of the lingering images of young boxers, perhaps even the "intimate" footage of those boxers putting on their jocks...another to ignore the strange intro that accuses a young boxer of lying about being forced to wear "a very small old-fashioned bathing suit" https://tinyurl.com/ya52ybrg

Tragic and beautiful, despite some uncomfortable footage of the kids.
