Portrait of the Absolute Intense Wrestling organization in Cleveland Ohio and how it's slowly become a feeder for the big leagues over the last two decades.
This film will move you to tears. This is one of the best portraits of the wrestling life I've run across. I've been a fan of wrestling since I was kid back in the 70's and I've never seen a portrait of the sport that was as clear eyed as this film as well as loving. There is nothing sensational or amped up. This is just the story of a group of people who love what they do and come together to do it as well as they can.
I have no notes, except the one's that I sent off to friends and fellow film writers in order to put this film ontheir radar. I was hoping that one of them would ask to see it because I could then get them to use the words that I lack to say how great and wonderful this film is.
This film will make you feel great and fall in love with the sport because you've fallen in love with the people who do it.
Highly recommended, this is one you must hunt down.
