À propos de ce contenu audio

 In the latest episode of "Lights, Camera, Gold", Rachael finally has her first female guest. This week, it is none other than CBC senior columnist, podcaster, and "Bend it Like Beckham" scholar, Shireen Ahmed. This week, in honour of the film's recent 20th anniversary, and the women's FA Cup Final on May 15th (featuring a member of the Canadian women's national team), Rachael and Shireen discuss the movie's legacy two decades later and if things really have changed for racialized women in sport, on screen, and behind the camera.


Co- Written and Directed by Gurinder Chada, "Bend it Like Beckham" stars Keira Knightley (in her first film role), Parminder Nagra, and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, and Juliet Stevenson. The movie was an immediate box-office success, and, 20 years on, it remains the highest-grossing soccer-focused sports movie of all time.
