Masked Mexican wrestling in the USA

Behind the Mask is a short documentary about "two everyday guys who, on the weekends, turn into masked lucha libre wrestlers. From the sport's roots in Mexico, to the backyards of America, lucha libre wrestling is a Latin American tradition alive and evolving in the United States."

It was produced and directed by Tilapia Film, makers of the terrific documentary, Plagues & Pleasures on the Salton Sea.
