Documentary: Youngest Woman to Box in the Olympics

Meet 17 year-old Claressa “T-Rex” Shields, the youngest woman – and one of the first – to ever box in the Olympics.  Filmmakers Zakary Canepari, Drea Cooper, Sue Jaye Johnson and Bianca Darville have been collaborating to document Shields’s journey to the Olympic games, including London as we speak.  They have listed their project on Kickstarter and can use your support.  Although they just managed to reach their funding goal as I write this blog, they are seemingly operating on a shoestring budget.  Their trailer suggests this will be an inspiring story told in a compelling way.  Give it a look, and check out their Kickstarter page if you have a chance:
