Hype

Probably the hardest film I've ever made and a whirlwind induction into the world of boxing. I was one of ten directors selected out of 300 to make a film for a charity in need. Stonebridge boxing club changes a lot of lives in an area that has it's fair share of gang violence. In my first meeting with Ali, who set up the club, he wanted a no holds barred film which started with a stabbing and ended up highlighting how boxing changes lives. We removed the stabbing, but created something that we're all proud of and which screened at the ICA. I hope that boxing continues to change lives for the better.
