Jack you pulled at my heart strings with that letter......🥺🥰
Now his sibling Jack, that's what a brother and sister should be..I'm Lucky to have that after being outed..We all have our battles, this message to take the Punches and give them harder in return..great message..Makes me even more proud to be of Irish-Scottish Roots..👍❤️
Tristan is beautiful. And what an amazing brother.
When these young men have to fight the ugliness outside, they need all the love and support from their friends and family just to withstand the disgusting homophobes.
This seems to be the FIRST time that a school official in a film addresses the school about homophobia and its consequence ... immediate suspension. Should be the basic moral and legal obligation to all students who have ever been bullied.
@@jeremylee5990 You make zero sense.
Thank you for a great short film. You captured clearly what happens outside irrespective of which country.
Thank you for watching! Glad that you enjoyed it:)
Beautiful film. Maxim shines brightly, stealing every scene. I've read all the comments and would like to add that as viewers of film, we must put aside our longing to be spoon-fed every single detail. There is much that our imaginations can fill in for us, making the experience richer. Thank you for your excellent work, Robert Madden!
Thank you Chuck, I very much appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it😁
Great film 🎥 I enjoyed every moment of working on the film, looking forward to working with the young director again 👀
You, young man, Robert, have stolen my heart with your philosophy and work. Love from Pakistan.
Irish timotheé chalamet has entered the chat
Haha thank you for watching! The character I'm guessing you are referencing is played by Maxim Trigub:)
@@robertmadden915 Haha yes and this was really good!!
Just happy the brother alive and that he kept going
Thank you for watching! We needed a happy ending to the film after all the hardship:)
Also thought brother had died, at the end thou bit confused Tris talking yo a ghost de
The days of all gay films ending in sadness and misery are OVER DAMMIT. Bravo to the filmmakers.
the title just reminded me of that video "THERE ARE NO GAYS IN IRELAND KATHERINE"
Omg I was gonna comment that exact same thought. Every Irish gay short film I think of that video. 😂
They’re not gae. there are just flamboyants in Ireland who love singing and dancing. lol
Family,Love & Support, Can onlky imagine how Amazing that must feel like, But What a Great Movie! Well Done and reminded Who I AM!! Blessings
A very interesting short film, understated and yet powerful. Congratulations to all involved. Looking forward to your future work.
Seriously?!!! How did I not find this gem sooner?!
Thank you for watching! Many more films to come in the future:)
I was in TEARS ❤ when TRISTAN was reading what is brother wrote to him😭😭😭😭😭😭 AWESOME SHORT FILM 👌 🎥 🎞 📽 🎬 🎦 ...WITH LOTS OF LOVE FROM INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA USA 🇺🇸 😏💦
Fab little movie with a lot of heart and yes the lead does look like Timothee Chalamet! Love the boxing sequences and Jack standing up for his little brother. Well done to all involved
The hair maybe but not the face
looks better than Timothee. ouch. and Irish too.
An excellent film that sends a strong message. It would have been nice if towards the end we'd heard that the guys who beat up and wounded Jack had been brought to justice. Nevertheless, it is truly inspiring and shows that gays can't and shouldn't be stereotyped.
When a short film lasts 30 min and it feels like 10 min it is well done! I'll be happy to see the next short film😊
All of the things I enjoyed about this short film, the overshadowed whatever problems i had with it. There is tragedy without being tragic. Plus the story is really good. Thank you!
This is an EXCELLENT film! Thank You!
Amazing.......kudos to these people behind this short movie.love from 🇨🇦
Great short 😊 It's good to watch a gay themed film where the main character triumphs over adversity for once. I must admit the homophobic scenes of Tris & his brother being brutally assaulted were jarring & harrowing to watch. This film definitely hit me on an emotional level. Fantastic film making.
im surprised how well made this film 💯💕
Excellent short wirh plenty of heart! Nice work to everyone involved. Would like to know what happens next. If theres a sequel I'm in!
Good short film I enjoyed it very much. The young lead us a very good actor. Excellent in fact.
Good movie,enjoyed it . Good to see alot of supportive characters.
Wonderful movie ever...best coach best brother best father...always believe in yourself
Thank you very much for watching!
Una historia muy bien contada y con excelentes actuaciones! Well done.
Wow beautiful message 💗
Great film
Really liked this. Need more seeing one rise above homophobic and show their greatness.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed :)
Eu amei este filme 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
This represents what every young gay man wishes for, love and acceptance from family.
Great film! Looking forward to seeing Maxim's future work.. I think he's one to watch
This would have never happened if he studied with my eight week program. Call now, for your free trial lesson.

Wow that was a real wallop of a movie. packed alot in 30 min ,perfect length, acting was lil sus but overall good performances 👍👍solid story
Loved this film
It is such a great thing that they metioned respect as the most important thing, no matter what. Well done! Life is all about love and respect. You don't need to like, but respect! And love dosen't work without respect!
Great film. Thanks
Yo!!!! Robert... This movie IS SO AMAZING!!!! Yo, You did a great JOB on this!!!! I know we don't know each other BUT I'm SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!
Heartfelt.
It's really beautiful
Not clique, just perfect. ❤️
This is wonderful it made me cry
I'm glad that it made you cry for the right reasons! Thank you for watching and the support:)
Powerful short film ❤️👍
Lovely Irish film.
That was an AWESOME film. Beautiful and true ending!! Shows that not all gay stories end in a great tragedy!!
Great, great film.
A beautiful film
There should be part two of this wonderful movie...please
We'll see what happens. I'm not planning on a sequel in the near future but maybe some day:)
Thank you for a very good "Short" with a story-line many can relate to, and others need to see! Your poignant conflicts are realistic and can be found on almost any continent/culture. It's one where the struggle of finding and accepting ones self often comes with a BIG price tag, up to and including death.
I'm not sure I understand all the discussion on what you left out. While actually showing the intimacy between love interests (regardless of sexuality) satisfies the salacious lust of today's audiences, there's plenty of sources for that material on the limitless sleaze sites littering our www. In MY opinion, the intimacy and unconditional love depicted between BROTHERS which was so artfully captured, far outweigh some predictable sex scene.
In today's world, we'd benefit from more movies, and hopefully real-life stories like this, after all, Family first and Love is Love!
Encore - Marc
Thank you for watching! The main story was to do with the brotherly connection and the lengths to which each would go for eachother:)
@@robertmadden915 And that's the storyline that captured my heart. We should all be so blessed to find such a connection.
Just found this. I skipped over it a couple of times. Not much of a fan of fighting and so many boxing-related films are horribly cliched. This was well done. Packed a lot (so to speak) in to half an hour. Thank you.
Well thank you for returning:) I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
Excellent film. The intensity of emotions are presented without any excessive drama.
Thank you very much for watching! I have the actors to thank for their natural performances and intensity, they were truly an incredible and talented team to work with:)
@@robertmadden915 Absolutely. It also speaks high about your talents.
Tears!!
Thank you for watching:)!
Really good,great story
Very good movie highly recommend😊🤜🏼🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊
Thank you for watching:) Glad that you enjoyed it!
We so need many more films that portray gays, lesbians and the rest of our community in non-stereotypical characters.
Kudos to whomever came up with this one.
You're to be congratulated; it is a wonderful film. I really enjoyed it.
Thank you for watching! Delighted that you enjoyed it:)
Thanks you so much amazing
Thank you for watching:)
excellent!
Hi nice film loved it. Txs 🙊🙊🙊😍😍😍😍
Thank you for watching! Delighted you enjoyed:)
Nice film; I've always believed we have to fight back against homophobes. Putting up with their crap won't get us anywhere.
Good film Its just a pity it wasn't a full movie Cheers man
Thank you for watching! I would've loved to had made it full feature length however the budget wouldn't have given a feature as much justice as the short:)
Undefeated is a low budget little gem of a film written and directed by Robert Madden. At first glance, one is led to believe it is a tale about boxing. But as the late master film reviewer Roger Ebert said about Raging Bull--This is not a film about boxing. Tristan is your not-uncommon high school teen with yawn-inducing accomplishments. He seems to lack motivation, he lacks in spirit and his Ma thinks he could show more liveliness. But his public persona belies an angst only later revealed in the narrative: He can no longer ignore the homophobic hostility in school increasingly focused on his very being.
There are minor distractions in the film such as some scenes transposed or deleted so that continuity seems truncated in parts. In addition, an announcement scene by an official about zero tolerance for homophobia at the school appears before Tristan is assailed, instead of after. And why did his boyfriend get such a micro part?
Tristan joins a boxing club and impresses his future trainer with pulverizing blows on the facilities' sand bag. After some ambitious training, the teen looks forward to a scheduled match... that is, until he discovers who his opponent is.
Our young protagonist is suddenly faced with a life-changing dilemma no growing boy in trouble can escape: fight, flight, or reason. So he walks away. In Stephen Crane's powerful novel, Red Badge of Courage, Henry Fleming, the teen enlisting for the civil war soon experiences the wonder of adventure, the double take on realizing he's in a war, the cowardice which paralyzes him, the realization that he needs to earn a bleeding wound in a fight before he can step on that stage of adulthood with the other wounded heroes.
But with Tristan, a violent incident involving a beloved family member eventually propels him back to the boxing ring where, after an epic dusting, he finally attains his own empowering, transformative badge of courage.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of Robert Madden et al's projects in the future.
thanx now it all makes more sense....in this short movie, you get no real understanding of many factors ...but one thing is real....being gay is often associated with being weak and you get to be that for real,cause you know, that the whole world might be judging you bad for it or ,at least,treat you differently ,once you inform them about you....an you start living ij your own mind with
@@superbatfirenze No doubt different viewers will have different interpretations. My take was that the teen years is a period where you learn to confront life's issues and how you do it becomes part of your character.
Thank you for your fantastic analysis! I think you summed up the film just as well as I could have. Thank you for watching:)
Thank you ,,,
Hiya all it's mandy Irving here really loved working on this film 🎥
Thanks for living in truth man.
Powerfull movie, with great awareness of society
This is a beautiful film. And Tristan performed extremely well. It would be good to see him in other productions because he aced this one. It would be great to see a little more of him in the future.
Thank you for watching! Tristan was played by 'Maxim Trigub'.
Tristan has a lot of depth to him and emotivity which is nice to see in a strong body and in a fierce sport. In a way im glad there was no showing the boyfriend so as not to make it about their relation but more about focus on family bonds and his coach inspiring him to be great.
Thank you very much for watching:) Glad you enjoyed.
Cool.
Tough, but an amazing film. I know hard it can be being gay. Things are better, but not by much. Bravo!
Thank you. I wish we could have seen or heard that the old bullys who beat his brother up got punished for what they did. He looks like he’s in that wheelchair for life🙁
Thank you for watching :) In the original script it was written that he would be in the wheelchair temporarily however I decided to cut it as Tristan's story was the main story being told. I'll be doing an analysis of the film on my channel soon so make sure to subscribe!
This neighborhood at the beginning reminds me of one in California... no joke. And, btw, these accents are all over the place.
I like the trainer in this movie. Looks like a good focus patient man. Understands his students. Cares. I believe the best fight trainers are in ireland.
I like very much!
Great film, well-done thank you for making and sharing this creation with us and the world, it's a great message and offers hope and inspiration and something to strive for while controlling our often out of control EGOS, ego is a very important attribute of humanity as long as we keep it in check
Um, it seemed to go black prior to his friend walking into the kitchen during her party. Was he kissing the drama club boy?
Same thing happened here...
You welcome 😉😉😉👍👍👍👍
It's a shame that the acting did not support the storyline, but the budget decides a lot about the quality of a film. Not a total bomb though, the message got through to me. Thanks!
good movie but the audio needs a bit of work maybe a mic filter or something
Txs 😍😍👍👍👍
Thank you for watching!
Though some scenes were a bit uncomfortable to watch, they are essential for the story, but up until minute 20 the plot seems disjointed while some long shots at the beginning take away other not included scenes, in all it is a good film. Congratulations
Good film, the bond between the two brothers is very moving. Like some other commentators though, I do wish Tristan’s gayness had been shown more than just referred to. A make-out scene with the drama student (Elijah?) after the ‘I like your bracelet’ quip would have been more than welcome and would have lifted the film from good to great, in my view.
Kudos to EVERYONE involved in this excellent film💥👊❤💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👏👏👏👋💥💯✌
Thank you very much:)
Sinto muito a falta de legenda em espanhol ou português...
Me desculpe, nós só fizemos o filme em inglês. Obrigado por assistir :)
Has potential but too choppy with too many scenes that are so disjointed. It seems a scene was edited at 6:28? Who was Elijah? His character could have been developed a bit, yes? I'll be interested in your next project. Keep plugging along and learning from each film. Good luck.
Thank you for your feedback! I made the decision to not develop Elijah in depth as the main focus of this story was between the brothers. Developing Elijah further may have deducted from the main message and premise. There are plenty more films in the pipeline of many different genres so do stay tuned:)
What is it with the accents
Americans I’m Ireland ?!
Clearly Irish
Was this film cut?
Does anyone know what country this short story is from?
Ireland :)
It wasn't before🙂
What’s the title of the song

Great gym & heaps of great bags
Plus ..
Hola buen día o buenas tardes.....!! Es incómodo comprender el film, sin subtitulos en español 👎 Es la segunda vez que lo veo, y es difícil entender la "trama" del mismo....!!
Question, why is the gym empty? No other boxers training, guys working out? An audience for the fight? Why did it completely jump from him getting jumped to im assuming having to fight one of the guys who beat him up, with no scene with his family explaining the marks? Kinda omitted a lot. Even the first scene, did they walk in on him kissing the guy or fucking on the floor? They went from just meeting to doing something to boyfirends in under 2 mins. Tristans coach is kinda funny, nothings a guarantee in the bag in boxing. ( the dude trying to sound like Rockies coach Micky lmfao not an insult, just an amusing observation) This film, has an amazing amount of promise if you're ever to secure a large budget, larger cast and stand ins. Would make a great lgbt movie giving inspiration to many gay youth boys. I would pay to see it then. Great concept foundation. Hope you can build on it.
great script
i wish u add subtitle so I'm not native English can understand :')
What is the Real name of tristin?
Max Trigub
ok chris 😏💕
Why did they go in and out of ascents?
Jasiahla Ramos I think they just know some English words more than others.
Robert Madden’s film “Undefeated” has the advantage of a charismatic lead actor in Maxim Trigub as well as a sensitive performance by Aston Burke Flynn as the brother. But these advantages are diminished by the filmmaker’s inexperience in telling the story of a gay youth who finds his self-assertion through the sport of boxing.
Occasionally, the genuineness of a film’s theme (as here) and the sincerity of its storytellers compensates for raw film craft, but “Undefeated” labours its way for 35 minutes through a storyline that is expansive where it should be brief, and brief where it should have lingered. Moreover, one of the most important lessons any filmmaker should absorb is to avoid scenes borrowed from film & tv shows whose construction are not clearly understood; the chief example here are the clumsy boxing scenes which are key to the film’s 2nd half.
None of these criticisms relate to the film’s low budget. I wish the filmmaker well for his next film, but suggest he work alongside a more experienced director shooting his script and that he sit with a good editor who, by disciplined cutting, can transform an ordinary film into a good one.
I appreciate your points and will take them onboard, however I disagree with a few of them. The whole concept of filmmaking is to develop your craft. Working alongside more experienced directors and editors is often costly, therefore requiring a stronger budget. Along with this, working with a more experienced director/editor would be handing the workload elsewhere which would take away from the educational and learning experience which comes with the challenges faced on such film. Obviously there are things I would've done different had I a strong budget.
@@robertmadden915 I think you did awesome, really enjoyed this, would like to see more like it👍
I was hoping to see him with his boyfriend, alone and in the public. But feel like it was more about boxing then anything else 😕
Ok I gave a like because of his brother's letter n differentfor a gay movie. Very moving. Acting C- Overall I did like it 👍
Nice movie, wish I understood the language though
