ABOUT THE FILM:
BELOW THE BELT is a gritty and humorous drama about life on the road as a female professional wrestler, in the tradition of ROCKY and FAT CITY. Based on the memoir To Smithereens by Rosalyn Drexler (who wrestled as the “Mexican Spitfire”), it is a realistic and moving take on the highs and lows of life on the mat. Rosa Rubinsky (Regina Baff) is a natural at fending off unwanted sexual advances while working at a sports arena concession stand. So when she’s discovered by promoter Bobby Fox (John C. Becher) and trained by real-life legend Mildred Burke, Rosa soon finds herself competing in the turbulent world of pro wrestling.
