95 Minm | United Kingdom | Documentary | 2023-07-04
Pada zaman mereka, Marian 'Lady Tyger' Trimiar, Cathy 'Cat' Davis dan 'Pretty' Pat Pineda terkenal, menjadi berita utama saat mereka berjuang melawan masyarakat seksis tahun 1970-an demi hak untuk berperang. Namun saat ini, mereka hidup tanpa nama, dan dalam banyak kasus, dalam kemiskinan - kontribusi mereka yang luar biasa terhadap olahraga diabaikan oleh orang-orang yang telah menulis sejarah tinju. Film dokumenter ini mengungkap asal-usul tinju wanita yang tersembunyi, dan kisah luar biasa dari para wanita pionir yang mempertaruhkan nyawa mereka demi mendapatkan hak untuk bertarung satu sama lain di atas ring. Ini adalah kisah inspiratif, namun ini bukan hagiografi - narasinya mengambil liku-liku yang kelam dan mengejutkan ketika kisah-kisah perempuan terungkap dengan cara yang tidak terduga.
In their day, Marian 'Lady Tyger' Trimiar, Cathy 'Cat' Davis and 'Pretty' Pat Pineda were famous, earning headlines as they battled against sexist 1970s society for the right to fight. But today, they live anonymously, and in many cases, in poverty - their groundbreaking contributions to sport ignored by the men who've written boxing history. This feature documentary uncovers the hidden origins of women's boxing, and the remarkable story of the pioneering women who put their lives of the line to earn the right to fight each other in the ring. This is an inspirational story, but it is not a hagiography - the narrative takes dark and surprising twists and turns as the women's stories unfold in unexpected ways.
