In Minneapolis’ large Somali refugee community, Adan (Barkhad Abdirahman) has nowhere to go. His mom kicked him out, and his friends are tired of his headstrong ways. As a last resort, he moves into the mosque, praying for a little help. Surprisingly, God seems to answer. Adan quickly lands a good job, devout friends, and a newfound faith.

Grimm – “Silence of the Slams” Review. And in this Corner…

<i>Grimm</i> – “Silence of the Slams” Review. And in this Corner… 8

“Silence of the Slams” takes us into the world of Mexican wrestling with “luchadors” vying for the spotlight of the square ring. Young (human) wrestler Goyo (Joseph Julian Soria) is tired of playing the loser to top billed luchadors like “El Mayordomo” (Sal Guerro). What makes “Silence of the Slams” so intriguing is Goyo’s moral dilemma, as well the mask-maker Benito’s (Danny Mora). As Benito warns Goyo about wanting to pursue more power in the ring, he also tries to deter him from seeking notoriety. Fame isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be; there is always a price to pay.
