Passionately filmed for two years with no budget, SAVIOURS is the moving debut feature film by Ross Whitaker and Liam Nolan.
The film has proved a real crowd-pleaser at festivals and has won awards in its home country of Ireland. There have also been successful screenings in the US - The Chicago Tribune described the film as "the best in bare-bones, small-scale filmmaking... proof that when it comes to making smart movies, everything else matters more than money.
The film is an intimate, gripping and often humorous documentary following three young boxers from the same Dublin boxing club, St. Saviours Olympic Boxing Academy on Dorset Street.
The club is a safe haven amongst the dangerous flats of Dublin's north inner city.
There, under the guidance of the club's canny coaches, the three boxers fight for a better life both inside and outside the ring.
