Spotlight
Private detective John Rosow (played by Michael Shannon) is hired to tail a man on a train from Chicago to Los Angeles. Rosow gradually uncovers the man's identity as a missing person; one of the thousands presumed dead after the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. Persuaded by a large reward, Rosow is charged with bringing the missing person back to his wife in New York City.
Spotlight
'Pulling John' is the universal story of a champion, who after 25 years of domination is now burdened with the inevitable transformation of aging. John Brzenk, the legendary Armwrestler, the real “OVER THE TOP” champion who works as an airline mechanic by day must decide whether to leave the sport he was raised on or wait to be defeated by 2 up and coming titans. Voevoda from Russia, Bagent from West Virginia have been raised on the legend of John Brzenk and now seek to take his crown. These men define themselves by not becoming champions but by defeating the legend that is known as Brzenk. In a philosophical and thrilling ride, 'Pulling John' culminates at the Zloty Tur Championship in Warsaw, where Bagent and Voevoda have the chance of their life, to dethrone the conflicted Brzenk.
