10 Women's Basketball Movies to Fuel Your March Madness Fandom
I compiled a list of women’s basketball movies and documentaries so that every type of fan can find their new favorite watch.
Colony
This film explores multinational shoe company Bata’s impact on individual lives and their surroundings. The film’s aesthetic, shifting from site to site and shot to shot, offers pockets as a visual version of the bubble that was the Bata colony itself. The characters are all connected to that past. They guide the viewers through the merging of past and present in memory. The film’s colouration also evokes this mixture.
