A documentary film, Pahlavan, explores the story of wrestling, a sport rich in history and diversity, as it faces its biggest challenge yet: potentially being removed from the Olympics.

Pahlavan showcases wrestling's uniting power, its accessibility to anyone, and its potential to achieve sports diplomacy, which traditional diplomacy often fails to do.
