“Klitschko” is a gripping documentary that delves into the lives of the most renowned siblings in the boxing arena, Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko. The film traces their journey from a disciplined upbringing in socialist Ukraine and their early achievements as amateur boxers, to their relocation to Germany and subsequent ascent to global fame, culminating in their near-domination of all five major boxing federation titles. This pinnacle was reached when Wladimir clinched the World Boxing Association title with a decisive victory over David Haye on July 2, 2011. Throughout their careers, the brothers face defeats, setbacks, and personal conflicts, yet they also experience remarkable comebacks. The documentary features engaging interviews with friends, rivals, and, for the first time, the Klitschkos’ parents, offering a glimpse into their personal lives. It also includes exclusive footage of their intense fight preparations and thrilling matches. Directed by Sebastian Dehnhardt, the film presents an intimate and compelling portrait of these extraordinary athletes who, above all, share a deep brotherly bond.
