Please join New Mexico Spokettes Racing Team in Albuquerque for a one night only screening of Katherine Bertine’s film, Half the Road. If we sell enough tickets, the film will be shown so please help us spread the word about this great film!
HALF THE ROAD is a documentary film that explores the world of women’s professional cycling, focusing on both the love of sport and the pressing issues of inequality that modern-day female riders face in a male dominated sport.
With stunning footage from some of the world’s best UCI races to interviews with Olympians, World Champions, rookies, coaches, managers, officials, doctors and family members, HALF THE ROAD offers a unique insight to the drive, dedication, and passion it takes for a female cyclist to thrive. Both on and off the bike, the voices and advocates of women’s pro cycling take the audience on a journey of enlightenment, depth, strength, love, humor and best of all, change & growth.
The director, Katherine Bertine says, “I began this documentary with the assumption it was about women’s professional cycling. A few months in, I realized the film was about equality and society, as told through the medium of cyclists. HALF THE ROAD is my hope that someday the whole world will see sports not as “men’s” or “women’s” but as equal athletes on equal playing fields.”
