An interesting film concerning the most populous English speaking country and what is perhaps the least known sport to the average American, field hockey. In particular, women's field hockey. This film gives the average American insight into Bollywood's over extravagance (perhaps a throwback to the early American film industry), women's field hockey and most importantly the evolving role that women play in modern day India. The women in this film come from all the regions of India, from girls coming from Himalayan towns in the north and Tamil girls coming from towns in the south. All in all this movie contains a cross section of Indian women, and an interesting cross section it is. For this film shows the comradeship needed not only for victory on the field hockey field but for victory for women's rights in India.
