Biographical Note
At the age of 42, Dr. Jenny Mackenzie left her career as a social worker to become a documentary filmmaker. Mackenzie was inspired to make a film about her daughter's soccer team after the team's consistent success compelled the coach (also Mackenzie) to move the team into a boys' league. The resulting film was selected for film festivals across the country and won awards at the Danville International Children's Film Festival (best short film), the Newport International Film Festival (best children's short) and the Utah Arts Festival (best short film). It has been nominated for a "Billie" award (named after Billie Jean King) for the positive portrayal of women and girls in the media.
