Watch: Gaea Girls 2000 123movies, Full Movie Online – A look at the tough world in which Japan’s Gaea Girls pursue a career in the wrestling and the training regime that all must pass before becoming professional..
Plot: This fascinating documentary is based around the Japanese wrestling organisation Gaea’s rural training camp, and traces, in the main, the careers of four hopefuls. In charge are two magnificent specimens, the butch champion Chigusa Nagaya, still venting her hurt at the hands of her army father as she tries to whip her surrogate daughters through the pain and commitment barriers; and her sophisticated and slightly menacing Chairman. It’s a gruelling, physical film, as you would expect, but the makers don’t make heavy weather of it. And it certainly disposes of any idea that the game is faked.

Intimate look at trippy Japanese sub-culture
Just when I thought I’d seen all the weird stuff that japan has to offer, this study of female “wrestling” comes along. It concentrates on a number of trainees who are just breaking into the professional form of the “sport” and their androgynous trainer, who looks like she gets through a whole whale every month or so.At the start of this movie I was pretty cynical and detatched but it succeeded in drawing me into their demi-monde. There’s one particularly moving scene where a trainee faces her coach and is brutally beaten up,which made me recognise how seriously they treat wrestling, no matter how shallow or merely entertaining it may appear from the outside.
