Aging wrestler Randy "The Ram" Robinson is long past his prime but still ready and rarin' to go on the pro-wrestling circuit. After a particularly brutal beating, however, Randy hangs up his tights, pursues a serious relationship with a long-in-the-tooth stripper, and tries to reconnect with his estranged daughter. But he can't resist the lure of the ring and readies himself for a comeback.

How It Feels

A raw, unflinching portrait of a man clinging to the only life he knows even as it destroys him. Tender and devastating in equal measure, with Darren Aronofsky finding profound humanity in wrestling spectacle.
