I usually shy away from boxing or wrestling films but being on a plane with not many selections, I decided to give this film a go. 5 to 10 minutes into the film, I knew it was good directing and acting. Overall it's inspirational and motivating though at times a tear jerker. The pace is just right and the acting from the children is superb. The viewer may feel controversy in the sense of child abuse in training the children to fight when the children themselves have little choice in the matter in order to survive a rural poor life. The pain of survival and success or the struggle for a better life is certainly evidently portrayed. Overall a moving film and a recommended watch.
