HELL ON WHEELS
USA, 2007, Bob Ray
Filmed over five years, this inspiring, ass-kicking documentary tells the story of a group of Texas women who banded together in 2001 to resurrect roller derby for the 21st century - founding Bad Girl, Good Woman Productions (BGGW), the first modern-day rollergirl league. Emerging from the Austin music and arts scene, these women created a rock 'n' roll-fueled version of all-girl roller derby (knee pads and fishnet stockings!) that has spawned the derby craze that's sweeping the nation (including Cleveland). The film's producer Werner Campbell will answer audience questions after the screening. "Full of adrenaline-fueled highs, heartbreaking lows, and lots of chicks in short skirts kicking the shit out of each other." -The Onion A.V. Club. Cleveland premiere. Beta SP. 90 min. www.hellonwheelsthemovie.com Co-sponsored by Burning River Roller Girls; special thanks to Natalie Wille. Special admission $10, Cinematheque members, those with BRRG I.D., CIA students & staff $7; no passes, twofers, or radio winners.
Show Times Nov 17 (Sat) - 9:15PM

"Hell on Wheels" screens Cleveland!!!
Critically acclaimed roller derby documentary "Hell on Wheels" screens in Cleveland, November 17th!
Hell on Wheels takes a from-the-trenches look at the dizzying clash of athleticism, exhibitionism, egos, politics and business that is modern-era roller derby. A group of hard-hitting Texas women overcome myriad obstacles in resurrecting and revamping the sport, only to find internal strife ripping the fledgling organization apart. Two leagues emerge from the clash, and what follows ignites an international roller derby revival. Shot over a five-year period by Bob Ray (Rock Opera) and Werner Campbell, Hell on Wheels was edited by award winning editor Conor O'Neill (Murderball, Word Wars) and features original music by And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead.

"Hell on Wheels is an epic doc. It's fast, fun, and inspiring."
- Chris Gore (founder, Film Threat Magazine)
"the kind of twists, drama, cat fights and compound fractures that only happen in real life. The story is extremely compelling, sometimes laugh-out-loud outrageous and above all inspiring."

"Hell on Wheels is full of adrenaline-fueled highs, heartbreaking lows,
and lots of chicks in short skirts kicking the shit out of each other."
- The Onion A/V Club
"Hell on Wheels is a killer documentary about the Austin all-women's roller-derby leagues that inadvertently launched a nationwide (and now worldwide) revival of the sport."
- Salt Lake City Weekly
"Hell on Wheels is a fascinating story and a fun movie."
- Cinematical
"Part rock 'em, sock 'em sports doc (cue Trail of Dead) and part behind-the-scenes expos, the film is blessedly free of A&E-style jiggle and melodramatic pandering, and it makes clear the value of Derby for misfit girls who like to clothesline people. Best of all is the film's coda, which tracks the subsequent formation of Roller Derby leagues across the U.S. and the globe."
