Kevin Macdonald’s Klitschko Doc & Roger Ross Williams To Feature At Sheffield DocFest


Sheffield DocFest 2024: The Klitschko doc will premiere & Roger Ross Williams will speak with Anna Hall.

Sky’s doc about the notorious Ukrainian boxing brothers will take audiences into the lives of former heavyweight world champion Vitali Klitschko and Wladimir, who were prominent in the industry for more than a decade. I’m grateful to Sky for enabling us to make this film, sometimes in the face of great obstacles, and to the Klitschko brothers for allowing us access to the most personal parts of their lives and showing us what bravery and resilience really mean.” Williams was the first African American director to win an Academy Award for his short Music by Prudence in 2009, and will present a curated program of five social impact documentaries, while moderating a panel discussion with the filmmakers.
