Venus VS.
Herself
We know about the swing. We know about the swagger. But what most Americans don't know about Venus Williams is how she changed the course of her sport. In a stunning case that captured the European public beginning in 2005, Williams challenged the long-held practice of paying women tennis players less than their male counterparts at Wimbledon. With a deep sense of obligation to the legacy of Billie Jean King, Williams lobbied British Parliament, UNESCO and Fleet Street for financial parity. And it was her poignant op-ed piece in The London Times that convinced many people that the Wimbledon tournament organizers were "on the wrong side of history." Roland Garros and Wimbledon finally relented in 2007. That year at Wimbledon, Venus became the first women's champion to earn as much as the men's singles winner (Roger Federer). VENUS VS. chronicles Williams' fight for pay equality.
Venus y Serena
herself
Realiza una mirada sin filtros a las notables vidas de las dos hermanas que el tenis profesional jamás haya visto. En un deporte donde no se les dio la bienvenida, las indomables hermanas Williams se enfrentaron a la oposición con la gracia y el coraje, no sólo abriendo nuevos caminos para las atletas estadounidenses femeninas y africanas en todas partes, sino dominando el juego durante más de una década. La película cuenta la inspiradora historia de cómo estas dos mujeres, a pesar de todo, y con la ayuda de sus visionarios padres, lograron llegar a la cima. (FILMAFFINITY)
