"17" is a social exploration into the lives of young women who are passionate about a sport they have been told was only for men. The film follows the Jordanian under-17 women's football team as they prepare for the FIFA U17 Women's World Cup Jordan 2016. Coming from different backgrounds, each of the girls has faced a different set of challenges as a national team player. But now they come together to face their biggest challenge yet.
Made in Bletchley is a short documentary portrait of Bletchley Boxing Community Hub, a grassroots club in Milton Keynes where discipline, dignity, and belonging are sparred for as hard as any title. Through the eyes of its founder, its young boxers, and the families in the corner, the film captures a community that refuses to let its kids fall through the cracks. What begins as a gym becomes a second home — a place where identity is built punch by punch, and where the ring is the smallest part of what's really being fought for.

Althea Gibson’s life and achievements transcend sports. A truant from the rough streets of Harlem, Althea emerged as a most unlikely queen of the highly segregated tennis world in the 1950s. Her roots as a sharecropper’s daughter, her family’s migration north to Harlem in the 1930s, mentoring from Sugar Ray Robinson, David Dinkins and others, and fame that thrust her unwillingly into the glare of the early Civil Rights movement, all bring her story into a much broader realm of the American story.
