Cassius Clay is a kid who rushes into boxing by accident, following the theft of his bike. Clay becomes Muhammad Ali, and his talent for the sport is proven when he wins an Olympic Gold Medal. The World Heavyweight Champion never takes a hit without fighting back. Civil Rights activist, contemporary of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X, Ali is one of the greatest icons of the twentieth century.

Born in 1971, Sybille Titeux de la Croix began her artistic studies with classical vocal music, but the fine arts, a family tradition for generations, captured her at the age of twenty-two. She attended the École Nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, where she studied drawing as well as sculpture, photography, film, and printmaking. She graduated in 1999 with a specialization in illustration. During her four years at l’ENSAD, she also performed with a classical Egyptian dance troupe.
