SUMMARY:Rookie - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:🔊 Listen to this Event Page\n        \n    \n  \n**Please note this event is now sold out – we may be able to release more tickets nearer the screening.

The volleyball coach spots Ace on her first day\, and invites her to try out for the team. She is initially no good at the sport and socially ostracised\, but things begin to change when she falls for the highly motivated team captain\, Jana\, who dislikes her because she sees her as a threat. But the girls and their teammates must nonetheless join forces: not only to successfully compete in competitions\, but also to face up against a more disturbing\, insidious threat. Powered by authentic performances\, Samantha Lee’s heartfelt film captures the resilience of the young athlete as she struggles for acceptance\, and the strength of female solidarity in a society rigged against women. \nCurated by Queer East. \n  \nClick here to book your ticket for this event \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £4\, £8\, £12\, £16\, or £20\, in order to make SQIFF more accessible to those on a low income.
