MURDERBALL (2005)
HENRY ALEX RUBINDANA ADAM SHAPIRO
Plot
A gripping documentary about the bruisingly vicious game of Quad rugby, a quadriplegic wheelchair bound variation on the original game that's scary just to watch. Focusing on the bitter rivalry between the American and Canadian national teams and the up coming 2004 Paralympics; the drive, focus, and brutal physicality of the game is a revelation, as is the tenacious mind set of many of its players. A heart pounding journey and a refreshing stereotype stomper. Excellent.
