Today's Staff Pick comes from Director of Exhibition & Programming, Desiree Buford.
Boy Cheerleaders
Armed with pairs of pompoms and an abundance of adolescent energy, the DAZL Diamonds cheerleading squad of South Leeds is preparing to become the first all-boy team to compete in the U.K. Cheerleading Championships.
Here's what Desiree has to say about the film:
Bust out your pom-poms for Boy Cheerleaders, the truly inspirational story of a squad of spirited lads as they pursue the sport of competitive cheerleading! Heartwarming, hilarious and utterly delightful this phenomenal BBC co-production celebrates young folks not being bound by traditional gender roles or norms and is a must-see for folks who loved Billy Elliot, Bring It On, or the reality show Dance Moms.
Boy Cheerleaders screens on Saturday, June 23, 11:30 AM at the Roxie Theater.
