Description
| Summary: | Every Spring in Japan, young people have to decide their future. But things are changing - particularly for women, who are finding it even harder to get jobs. Many young girls are opting to stay at home with their parents, but some are setting their sights on a gutsier future - professional wrestling. Gaea is one such company that rears young wrestling hopefuls. The girls are expected to go through a gruelling year's initiation, where they will have to undergo severe physical training and hardship. This documentary follows the extraordinary transformation of young Japanese females, from timid youngsters, into confident fighting machines.
