Opis filmu
Opis oryginalny: angielski
La Lucha/The Struggle 72 min. color video What sweaty sport keeps kids off the streets, is "the new punk rock," attracts men, women, drag queens and midgets alike-and is the only place where would-be gang members can attack each other "without getting in trouble?" It's Lucha Libre, of course, Southern California's cult phenomenon which tears up the screen in Duncan MacLeod's eye-popping documentary La Lucha-The Struggle. You'll watch, mesmerized, as tattooed youths in flashy masks dramatically re-enact the battle for good and evil; outrageous pink-garbed drag queen wrestlers kiss macho men into submission; and even glamorous burlesque dancers bump and grind their way into the act. It's all here in this wild documentary. It's fun, it's gritty, it's real. It's La Lucha! —Michele Seipp
