Sports Entertainment Meets Reality...

“Passion And Pain” is a documentary film that introduces the audience with the intricacies of attempting to become a professional wrestler in a harsh entertainment world. Director Anthony Tempesta decided to make a film that showcases the grueling lifestyle of local wrestlers in the Phoenix Metropolitan area in Arizona and in California. The passion that the wrestlers have for the wrestling business and the pain that they experience due to injuries and personal sacrifice make this documentary a film that wrestling fans and non-wrestling fans can enjoy due to the realistic and personal nature of the film.
