Too Beautiful: Our Right to Fight Documentary

Despite boasting more Olympic gold titles for boxing than any other country, Cuba falls behind the rest of the world in its attitude to the place of women in the ring: to this day, there exists a nationwide ban on women's competitive boxing. The film captures the tireless battle of Namibia Flores Rodriguez, the only known female boxer in the Caribbean nation. Training at Havana's Rafael Trejo arena in defiance of the ban, the athlete undertakes the same unrelenting regime as her male counterparts-running the same circuits, lifting the same truck tires-but without the hope that she might one day represent her country.

Together with adidas, we partnered with director Maceo Frost to show the world that “Sport Has the Power to Change Lives” and to bring adidas into the original content space. Adidas funded, produced and consulted on the film to insure the purest story could be told. The film premiered at The Sheffield Doc Fest and traveled around the film festival circuit garnering many awards. The film is currently shown on HBOmax and all your favorite streaming platforms.
