Pride, rudeness and expression forms the fundament of Mexican Lucha Libre (free fighting). Since being established in 1863, out of the Greco-Roman combat principles, this tradition is passed down from generation to generation. Many young Luchadors are raised surrounding this practice, which holds a fine line between fantasy and reality. "de Lucha o Huida" follows young Luchador Xtreme Fly Jr (23) on his path to his rivalry fight. He aims to win the championship and glorify his family name. Below the surface of dramatized butalism, a demanding structure and danger uncovers. Pressure and doubt pull the young Luchador in different directions on his journey towards the ring.
