The Californer/10201002

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- GV13 ROLLER GURL:  A Complicated 'Game-Time' Love Affair is a documentary film from multi award-winning filmmaker Bob Bryan.  ROLLER GURL is an insightful multi-dimensional look at this re-emerging complex Sport that has already swept across every state in the USA and flourishing around the world.

"GV13 is very well done, good pacing, and an accurate depiction of one of the lesser known sports.  Filmmaker Bob Bryan did an excellent job using natural sound and numerous sources to tell the story.  Obviously he put a lot of work into this documentary that's a 'must-see' for anyone involved in Roller Derby, but would also be entertaining to the non-sports fan." - Mike Scott, KSPR Sports Director

'Insightful and revealing,' GV13 is a honest straight-up, no-frills, stripped-down documentary film about contemporary women who ignore societies naive programmed gender stereotypes regarding women's lack of aggressiveness, physicality and strategic skill-sets.

"GV13 ROLLER GURL is probably not what people (non-derby) will expect in a derby documentary.  It is however, at least from my experience, an excellent and dynamic portrayal of the girls behind the derby names.   'Game-Time' captures the Soul of Derby!" - Nerd Badger (Tracie Scott), Inter-league Relations, E-Ville Roller Derby League, Alberta, Australia-Member of Canadian Women's Roller Derby Association

In this organized and rule-based world of Roller Derby, these women lustfully battle each other, deploying skilled defensive and offensive combative strategies that utilizes no balls whatsoever!

"You see, there's no balls in Roller Derby.  What makes Roller Derby unique is that the offensive scoring object is a girl with a star on the side of her helmet.  Essentially, 'the Jammer' is the ball and she's bowling thru all these players...  We don't need a ball, we've got a human!" - GoGo Gidget, Bench Coach and Player for Angel City Derby Girls (ACDG)
