Speed Sisters

(Amber Fares, 2015) 

Presented in collaboration with Cinéseries

Described in The National as “a thrill ride from beginning to end,” Speed Sisters documents a team of women race car drivers living and driving in Palestine. The film follows the five women who make up the first female street racing team in the Middle East. Navigating both the challenges of the street racing scene and the Israeli occupation, these women more than rise to the occasion. In Arabic and English with English subtitles. (80 mins., DCP)

Hand-picked by Cinéseries president Yasmeen Taher-Masri, this screening will be followed by a casual discussion with light refreshments in the café area outside the theater. Join Cinéseries for an inspiring evening organized by Ohio State students for the broader community.

Admission is first come, first served.

Free for all audiences with ticket.
