Trailer
Why watch this film?
The plot is so strange it seems unreal, but the truth is that 'Nacho Libre' has its origin in a real story. With the goal of raising money for the children in his care, priest Sergio Gutierrez debuted incognito in Mexican wrestling as Fray Tormenta in 1974. He didn't make as much money as he had hoped, but he became a legend that inspired the creators of 'Napoleon Dynamite'.

Napoleon Dynamite
Jared Hess' debut feature film became an unexpected cult classic, filled with awkward comedy courtesy of its strange protagonist, obsessed with "having awesome skills" and drawing mythical creatures. It's hard to predict if 'Napoleon Dynamite' can appeal to anyone, but one thing is certain: there is no other movie like it.
Comedy
Psychic by Accident

But mysteriously he leaves there with a strange power: discovering, with just a touch, people's true vocation.
