Two WWE Network Documentaries have been selected to be shown during the prestigious LA Shorts International Film Festival.
Heaven and Superfan: The Story of Vladimir will play at the upcoming event. The festival begins next month, running from July 1-31.
Heaven documents the inspiring story of Heaven Fitch, who became the first female athlete to win a male state wrestling championship in North Carolina.
Superfan: The Story of Vladimir follows one of WWE’s biggest super-fans, Vladimir Abouzeide. This documentary was announced during WrestleMania 37 weekend. The one of the directors of the documentary, Giancarlo Dittamo, was let go by WWE earlier this year.
