Tough Moves

13-year-old Arminius navigates the contrasting worlds of his unique sport: chessboxing. In one moment, he is immersed in the calm concentration of the chessboard; in the next, he is engaged in the intense physicality of the boxing ring. This challenging balance extends into his home life, where his father, also his boxing coach, imposes rigorous training. Together, they prepare for the upcoming German championship.
