Zion

Zion is a 2018 short documentary film following Zion Clark, born without legs, growing up in foster care, and becoming a wrestler. The documentary was released on Netflix on August 10, 2018.

A portrait of Zion Clark, a teen born without legs and raised in foster care, who finds confidence through competitive wrestling, Zion is a visually dramatic, hi-energy, hi-inspiration affair, practically the platonic ideal of an internet profile doc. Its arc is a bit rote, and the film can be accused of being more flash than substance, but if you love these kinds of pop docs, you will be hooked, and at only 11 mins, it is a welcome relief from the 40min docs that are the usual Oscar short subject fare.
