Nouhaila – Ich boxe!
Nouhaila – I’m a Boxer!
Bettina Braun
Nouhaila is 11 years old and lives in Cologne. She’s a Muslim and wears a hijab. Her sport is kick-boxing. The film follows Nouhaila as she prepares for a tournament and accompanies her in the boxing ring during the actual contest. In between training sessions, she takes us to her world: she shows us her home and family, her friend and her mosque.
