Events & Programs
Indigenous Rising, the first roller derby team to represent multiple Nations at the Roller Derby World Cup, unites players across continents to claim space in the sport they love.
Rising Through the Fray follows this groundbreaking team as new generations join, determined to change the face of roller derby—an inclusive, female-empowering sport still lacking diversity.
With candid intimacy, filmmaker Courtney Montour blends energetic gameplay and tender daily moments as skaters from 30+ Nations find strength in each other. Through portraits of Sour Cherry, Krispy, and Hawaiian Blaze, the film reveals displacement, reconnection, resilience, and belonging beyond the track.
Director/Writer: Courtney Montour
