Your browser doesn't support HTML5 video.

'I Am Ali' is a documentary about the life of the boxing champion Muhammad Ali, as much as it is also a documentary about the people who were inspired and motivated by his image, or through meeting him. The documentary is told, in part, through never before heard audio journals from the boxing legend and human rights activist. Through his huge heavy weight career, as well as his racial justice and religious freedom avocation, Ali became a hero to many people. The film is set to be the third documentary about Ali, although with this new, more personal insight into the man behind the gloves, to could yet prove to be the greatest.

Directed by Clare Lewins, and the makers of the Academy Award winning 2012 film, 'Searching for Sugar Man', 'I Am Ali' features touching interviews with his daughters, son, ex-wife and brother, as well as other boxing legends, like Mike Tyson, George Foreman and Gene Kilroy. It also features interviews with George Lois, Jim Brown and Tom Jones. The film does not include Ali himself, although he has acknowledged it and offered his blessing. The film is scheduled for a 2014 release date and will be shown in cinemas, as well as on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download.
