Lucia Rjker: A boxer, a Buddhist 2007, Netherlands, 60 minutes

Enigmatic, beautiful, spiritual, and utterly formidable in the ring, Lucia Rijker is a fascinating and unlikely personality. She is known for her role as an advisor and as an on-screen villain in 2005's Oscar-winning movie "Million Dollar Baby." A child of Dutch-African descent, she is an articulate Buddhist who happens to be one of the world's best female boxers, a 4 time former World Champion Kickboxer, a 2 time former World Campion Boxer. Sometimes funny and always enlightening, this documentary sheds light on the sport of women's boxing, detailing the trials and tribulations of trying to make it in this male-dominated pursuit. Lucia herself is captivating, with a natural charisma and quiet, introspective wisdom that intrigues and confounds. Well-shot and set to an award-winning soundtrack, this portrait of the undefeated boxer--often called the most dangerous woman in the world--exposes the motivations and drives that have compelled her into the ring and the realization that victory is not just to be attained in the ring.
