Synopsis:
Through the eyes of three wrestlers, the world of sports entertainment is explored, revealing not only the glamour and glory seen in the ring, but also what often remains hidden. Behind the lights, the applause, and the adrenaline of matches lies a journey of sacrifice, fatigue, and injuries that profoundly impact the lives of these athletes. The story invites us to look at the ‘other side of the coin’, the one not seen during the show but which accompanies those who choose this discipline daily.
