Beautiful Boxer (2003)

Goodness and brutality coexist throughout "Beautiful Boxer.'' An unforgiving sport using elbows and knees as well as feet and fists, Thai boxing provides Toom, a poor boy from a northern province, with amazing opportunities. He can support his parents and eventually pay for a sex-change operation. Along the way, however, his fighting career assumes greater meaning. The more his opponents tease him about his appearance, the harder he kicks. He's fighting for prize money, but also for the right to be different.
