IVRY | Documentary Short Film
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 кві 2019
- Boxing documentary profiles are a dime a dozen, but Jake Oleson's gritty profile breaks through the noise via beautiful style and kinetic action. A young boxer guides his protégé through his past growing up in the South Side of Chicago. Oleson leans into the underdog and inspirational tropes of the genre, but emerges on the other side with something genuinely heartfelt and inspiring.
A featured short film on Short of the Week:

"When dealing with familiar material like this, it’s so easy to overdo it, to lean on the crutch of saccharinity, which, ultimately, could result in the opposite effect and evoke a sense of falseness. Oleson manages to toe the line, showing restraint when necessary. He avoids traditional talking-head interviews, instead, relying on naturalistic voice-over from the protagonist, most of which was built around a conversation between Ivry and one of his students. Moreover, the film just doesn’t feel orchestrated. It’s hard to say whether this is because of Oleson’s deft directorial hand (again, the film is gorgeous to look at) or Ivry’s innate warmth and authenticity even as he performs scripted scenes, but, regardless of its cause, it’s impossible to deny that the final result is technically beautiful and emotionally moving." - S/W Curator, Ivan Kander

Such a powerful story. Totally a stand out amongst a sea of sports docs.
Never been so touched by a UA-cam Video. Reeks of talent, both Ivry, and the director.
