CGiii Comment
Lesbians in sport...no surprises there.
But...the discrimination on show is disgusting.
A female, homophobic coach cuts girls (of a certain persuasion) from her basketball team...she, herself, is a self-righteous, right-wing bitch. Although she doesn't get to plead her case.
Unfortunately, the film is too amateur and unbalanced to make an impression...and it does look like an overly long news item.
Rene Portland refused to be interviewed for the film - thereby negating the efficacy of the film.
A one-sided film...the homophobe has to speak too!

The(ir) Blurb...
Examines how women's collegiate sports, caught in a web of homophobic practices, collude in the destruction of the lives and dreams of many of its most talented athletes.
