April 10th screening with filmmaker Sarah Baril Gaudet in attendance

All SISTERS OF WRESTLINGS screenings to be paired with Québec short film FIRE-JO-BALL by Audrey Nantel-Gagnon

FIRE-JO-BALL (Audrey Nantel-Gagnon, 2023, 16 minutes)

Jo-Ann, a 57-year-old bartender, dreams of becoming a singer and actress. Oscillating between spectacular and intimate, between extra and ordinary, Jo-Ann infuses her daily life (and the film) with true main-character energy. At the crossroads of genres, Fire-Jo Ball paints the portrait of a woman who loves all things rosy even, if her life isn’t always so.

SISTERS OF WRESTLING (Sarah Baril Gaudet, 2023, 68 minutes)

Sisters of Wrestling is a feature-length documentary that explores the experiences of three women in the Quebec pro wrestling scene. As Loue finds balance between her wrestling career and her life as a new mom, Azaelle enjoys her last moments in the ring before taking an indefinite break. Meanwhile, LuFisto aims to reach new heights at the age of 42. The film paints an intimate portrait of these warriors for whom wrestling is both a passion and an escape from everyday life.
