Directing and producing my first-ever documentary was never an easy task.

0 budget, 2-man crew, and a legendary story to tell.

1 month on the drawing board, 2 weeks of filming.

This is how “The Real Italian Stallion: How Boxing Saved My Life” was born.

“My name is Lorenzo Contini, and this is the story of how boxing saved me.”
