Without Gloves

About This Movie

Without Gloves is a gritty exploration of adolescence and the harsh realities that come with it. Dylan, a budding boxer at just 14, navigates his feelings for the unattainable Samia while grappling with the expectations of his environment. The film's tone has this raw, almost desperate energy, reflecting Dylan's struggle as he forsakes his boxing gloves to gain street cred, caught in a whirlwind of youthful impulsiveness. The performances have a certain authenticity, especially from the young lead, who embodies that mix of bravado and vulnerability. The atmosphere is heavy, teetering between hope and despair, and the pacing feels true to life, sometimes dragging in a way that really mirrors the weight of decisions we make when we’re young.
