SPARRING Goes For The Rebound In The Newest Trailer For Samuel Jouy’s Boxing Drama
Boxer Steve Landry (Mathieu Kassovitz) has lost more fights than he’s ever won. But he’s never given up on his career. Now over 40, he’s pretty much washed-up in the ring. His one last chance to dazzle his wife and kid is to become boxing great Tarek M’Barek’s sparring partner. But constantly refusing to hang up his gloves, he risks losing everything.
Kassovitz himself also earned recognition at Locarno with The Excellence Award Moët & Chandon, something worth mentioning as a nice little bookend in lieu of his latest celebrated performance. Also starring are Olivia Merilahti, Souleymane M’Baye, Billie Blain and Lyes Salem with a script by Jouy and scribes Clément Roussier and Jérémie Guez.
