Isabelle is a thirty-three year old female boxer from the south shore of Montreal. As an athlete, she inevitably relies on her body. The body is like a mechanical engine. Her gym, a cold building made of steel and concrete, is located in the industrial area of an anonymous and typical suburban town. Her body, made of flesh and muscles, is continually pushed to its limits.


MÈlanie Saumure (b.1977) is a documentary filmmaker and photographer from Montreal. In 2007, she completed a BFA in Film Studies from Concordia University with honors. Her first short documentary, Underdog, shot on 16mm, has been screened in several major film festivals in Montreal. She is currently living in Toronto where she is working as a director of photography and an editor on various documentary films, while completing an MFA in Documentary Media at Ryerson University
