Documentary about two female muay thai fighters in Thailand who fight for a championship, and plan to use the money to help their impoverished families in a winner take all fight.
Um... they're both eight.
The filmmakers let the girls tell a complex story, with a few interviews of the families and associated people thrown in. The girls are incredibly engaging, and very different. When it was over I felt like I'd been punched in the gut.
Streaming on Netflix.
