Nöldi Forrer

Swiss Wrestling king Arnold ‘Nöldi’ Forrer is one of the biggest figures on the Swiss wrestling scene. He set himself the goal of setting a record. And it was to stand the test of time - if not for eternity - then for a long time to come: 150 crowns, more than any other wrestler has ever achieved. Since 2019, he is still three wreaths short of achieving this goal. Nöldi's increasingly severe hip problems, his increasing age and another cruciate ligament rupture in 2021 are making it increasingly impossible for him to fight. Will he still make it? This film provides an insight into the highs and lows of a top athlete. Nöldi Forrer was followed on camera for 6 years to capture his record attempt on film.
