Based on the real life story of Parinya Charoenphol, a Muay Thai boxer who underwent a sex change operation to become a woman, it chronicles her life from a young boy who likes to wear lipstick and wear flowers to her sensational career as kickboxer. Beautiful Boxer confronts issues of sexuality and gender in the high octane real-life world of Muay Thai.
