I was lucky enough to check this out at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival, and I HIGHLY recommend it. Very though-provoking and very well done! See this film! It's a very interesting look at independent professional wrestling & explores various concepts about balancing religious faith with being a performer, finding a balance between being true to yourself and your family whilst also being an entertainer. And, it of course touches on stereotypes - how can it not with a title like "Team Taliban" - and it presents some challenging ideas about our own stereotypes, but also how playing into our own stereotypes can be lucrative. I really hope it gets a television broadcast so I can recommend it others who can't get to the film festivals. Highly recommended short documentary!
