Beautiful Boxer (Thai: บิวตี้ฟูล บ๊อกเซอร์) is a Thai biographical sports film by Singapore-based director Ekachai Uekrongtham. It tells the life story of Parinya Charoenphol, a famous kathoey (trans woman), Muay Thai fighter, actress and model. She was portrayed by male kickboxer Asanee Suwan.
Synopsis
L'histoire est basée sur la vie de Parinya Charoenphol, dite Nong Toom, une boxeuse de muay-thaï katoï. Le film relate l'enfance de Nong Toom, enfant sensible, aimant jouer avec les filles et pour cela souffre-douleur de certains de ses camarades. Adolescente, alors encore considérée comme un homme, elle accepte le défi de participer à un combat de boxe qui lui montre que la volonté est plus forte que les aléas de la vie. Elle décide de s'entraîner sérieusement et, après bien des difficultés, progresse jusqu'à devenir championne, tout cela sans renier son identité de genre qui lui permet de se démarquer de ses adversaires à son avantage. Mais le désir profond qui l'anime est de transitionner, ce qu'elle fait au sommet de sa carrière.Actors
