Desc: Mystic Fighters: Directed by Sophie Meyer. For the first time ever the viewer has access to the sacred and personal rituals from the ancient and deadly tradition of stick fighting in the island of Trinidad & Tobago, West Indies. Peter Noel is poor and can barely feed his wife and 5 children but when he fights he is a hero and wins more than he would ever earn in a year. He is the only stick fighter who both drums and fights, often in the same night. He knows the art of stick fighting in its darkest corners and honours and respects its spirit. The film brings out the magic of a breathtaking landscape where Peter trains and prays, asking for guidance in choosing the right stick to partner him in his fighting. It takes you into a world beyond preconceptions where the poorest becomes the man of knowledge and the guardian to one of the eldest traditions based on the interaction between man and nature. Mystic Fighters will take your breath away with a strong cinematography based on a character driven narrative and you will discover the art of stick fighting like no one has approached it before.
