Directed by Phyllis Ellis, English, 1 hour 16 minutes, USA, 2022

Join us in screening Category: Woman as part of the annual Women Take The Reel Film Festival. 

In the wake of the Paris Olympics and relentless misinformation, and racism surrounding champion women Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting, the policing of women's bodies, gender discrimination and the attack on our identities as female athletes in international sport remains an issue that has plagued women's sport for decades.

Category:Woman exposes the over 100 years of sex testing highlighting the contemporary stories of remarkable athletes whose lives and careers have been destroyed by harmful, clandestine regulations enforced by International Sport. The devastation to their bodies and lives, yet their passion to compete is emboldened by a conviction to fight for their human rights.

Category:Woman is a champion's journey supported by remarkable humans who celebrate greatness in the face of oppression.

The screening will take place on March 20, 2025 at 5:00 PM. A Q&A discussion with special guests follows the screening.

This event is free and open to the public.
