Ring's partners in crime
Synopsis : In 2013, Tom "Cyborg" Wallace, a Muay Thai boxer, meets Dom Pao. Together, they train in the suburbs of Lyon and travel the globe to face top champions. Despite financial struggles, broken families, tragic losses, traps, ambushes, and aging bodies, ten years later, they have become multiple world champions. Wallace delivered a knockout that has become legendary, with a backstory full of twists and turns. After the Covid-19 pandemic and four years without stepping into a Muay Thai ring, they are approaching what might be their final fight. Tensions are rising. Will their friendship, unbreakable until now, survive the pressures and challenges that lie ahead? Through these two modern warriors, passion becomes a catalyst, brotherhood a compass, and the quest for self a guiding star. This story transcends Muay Thai, offering a lesson in humanity where the strength of the soul ultimately surpasses physical strength.
Idealist dreamer, experienced filmmaker, photography lover and former motion designer, based in Paris France. I specialize in documentary film and while traveling, street photography. My style is telling people’s stories to inspire, to ignite that little spark that can lead to a questioning, to a change. My images have a cinematic, natural and organic feel that gives a human tone to my photography. I shoot Leica, speak thaï, Serge Gainsbourg is my hero and I can cook the best lasagna you’ve ever tasted, for real!
