Saviours
Saviours is an intimate, gripping and often humourous documentary following three young boxers from the same Dublin boxing club, St. Saviours Olympic Boxing Academy.
The club is a safe haven amongst the dangerous flats of Dublin’s north inner city.
There, under the guidance of the club’s canny coaches, the three boxers fight for a better life both inside and outside the ring.
Winner of a Bronze Medal in the 2008 Olympic Games Middleweight boxing Darren Sutherland is one of the stars of ‘Saviours’. Not only is he a star in the ring but he is also a star on the big screen !
The film has proved a real crowd-pleaser at festivals and has won awards in its home country of Ireland. There have also been a number of successful screenings in the US and the Chicago Tribune described the film as "the best in bare-bones, small-scale filmmaking… proof that when it comes to making smart movies, everything else matters more than money.
