From DOCLAB:
Hanoi DOCLAB cordially invites you to the screening of the Cutie And The Boxer by Zachary Heinzerling.
“Once a rising star in the ’70’s New York art scene, 80-year-old “boxing” painter Ushio Shinohara is prepping for his latest show, hoping to reinvigorate his career. His wife and de facto assistant, Noriko, seeks her own recognition through her “Cutie” illustrations, which depict their chaotic 40-year marriage. CUTIE AND THE BOXER captures two lives united by a dedication to art-making for a touching meditation on the eternal themes of love and sacrifice.”
The Film Won 2013 Sundance Film Festival “Best Director Award” for Zachary Heinzerling and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature at the 86th Academy Awards.
