This offbeat documentary, directed by Ryan Harvie and John Paul Horstmann, focuses on an outrageous wrestling circuit and an unusual feud that develops among their ranks. The Seattle Semi-Pro Wrestlers pride themselves on their flamboyant characters -- including Eddie Van Glam and Ronald McFondle, the latter a perverted version of the McDonalds mascot -- but their most controversial character is a guy in a banana costume.
