Muay Thai is one of the most brutal combat sports of the world. The series of “Ode to the fighter” is made from a first-row audience perspective, investigating the human relations around the ring. Fighters towards their masters and managers, and naturally against each other. If you look close enough, you might be able to feel the overflowing smell of the mixture of tiger balm and human sweat, and listen how the crowd is getting louder with every smash of flesh and bones, as the voice of the Javanese clarinet is getting more intense with each and every round.
