OUT IN THE RING Trailer: LGBTQ+ Wrestling Documentary Nears Completion
The first trailer for the LGBTQ+ wrestling documentary Out in The Ring officially launched online prior to the weekend. It was produced by a friend to many of us here in the Canadian chapter of Screen Anarchy, Ry Levey.
While a documentary on wrestling would normally not fall within the lines of our mandate here at Screen Anarchy as I said, Ry is a friend of ours, and his angle is of particular importance not only to him but to many wrestling fans out there.
Levey has also launched a crowdfunding campaign to put the final pieces in place and bring his project to completion before it starts its festival run, fingers crossed, in May 2021.
Have a look at the trailer below and contribute to the campaign here.
