Israel Adesanya defies the world to pin him down.

Much like its subject, STYLEBENDER refuses to be boxed in by convention. Directed by female auteur filmmaker, Zoe McIntosh, the film transcends the “Sports-Doco” genre to tell the story of a tortured boy fighting against the world and himself, to become the man he was destined to be. Can he find something bigger than himself to fight for, or will he become the thing he hates the most?
