Catch & Cumbia

A young Mexican wants to become a Catch Fighter. He is inspired by the Cumbia music of the Dutch musician El Demasiado. Both have a strong imagination that inspires them to give the Cumbia Music and the Catch their own free form. In the film, they meet and prove that inventiveness and renewal of local cultures have a very universal value.
