🎬 From The Vault: Launch Screening

Curated Queer Cinema Comes to Calgary

Join us for the very first screening in a brand-new series bringing hand-selected queer films directly into community spaces across the city.

For our launch event, we’re featuring Bend It Like Beckham, a beloved comedy-drama about identity, friendship, culture, and chasing your dreams.

This special evening celebrates Women in Sports — and is open to all genders.

🌈 What to Expect:

• Curated queer cinema
• Community conversation & connection
• A welcoming, inclusive space
• Free admission

Bend It Like Beckham follows Jess Bhamra, an 18-year-old British-Indian woman who defies expectations to pursue her dream of playing professional soccer. As she navigates family pressure, friendship, and cultural identity, Jess learns what it means to bend the rules — and stereotypes — in pursuit of her passion.
