The New Zealand documentary Tickled has premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival in Utah this week.
It looks into the the bizarre world of Competitive Endurance Tickling. And while it sounds like the ''sport'' would be a bit of a laugh, it reveals a much darker story.
The investigation has attracted positive reviews. Variety magazine calls it an ''engrossing investigative documentary'', while The Hollywood Reporter says it is ''captivating and jaw-dropping''.
New Zealand journalist, David Farrier, is the man behind the documentary and its co-director is Dylan Reeve.
David joins Jesse from Utah.
