Ruth Kaaserer

Performances

Joana Noelle Scrinzi

Ruth Kaaserer’s work Tough Cookies documents the realities of everyday life for three similar, but ultimately unique, female boxers and their challenges both inside and outside of the ring. Struggling within this man’s world, they all live on the edge of society. With two of them continuing their training and the other having quit the sport, the triad of women allow the audience to fully permeate their lives, with Kaaserer documenting the results. The filmmaker and artist is present for the screening, and compliments the evening with a lecture held together with her editor Joana Noelle Scrinzi.
