THE SUM OF MANY
THE SUM OF MANY, IS THE UNTOLD STORY OF IZZET MAFRATOGU, A TURKISH IMMIGRANT IN BERLIN, AND HIS BOXING CLUB. A SANCTUARY FOR A YOUNG GROUP OF MEN AND BOYS WHO DIDN’T FIT IN AFTER IMMIGRATING TO GERMANY FOR A BETTER LIFE. OUTSIDERS IN THEIR DAILY LIFE, THEY FOUND A FAMILY IN IZZET’S GYM, AMONGST RESPECT AND CARE FOR ONE ANOTHER. THEIR NOSES, CHEEKBONES AND EYES ALL RESEMBLED THAT OF SOME TYPE OF HISTORY OF THEIR HERITAGE, AND THE VISIBLE FORM OF THEIR INTERNAL STRUGGLE TO FIND A SENSE OF BELONGING. THE ENVIRONMENT IZZET HAS CREATED WITHIN THE GYM FOSTERS RESPECT, BROTHERHOOD, AND DEEP PERSONAL CONNECTION, AIMING TO POSITIVELY IMPACT THE YOUTH OF BERLIN.
