Raw and beautiful

This was a look into a world of masculinity that often treads into toxic territory - the boxing ring. Overall, the cinematography (the use of mirrors especially) enhances the storytelling. The characters are believable and well-played. This could easily be a full feature instead of a short. The internal struggle of coming to terms with being vulnerable is well done here. Rewatchable. I was left wanting more.
