TOMBOY poster

Released in 2017, TOMBOY is a tv movie and documentary film, running about 43 minutes. “Elevating the conversation about gender in sports” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. TOMBOY explores the obstacles that young girls encounter on the recreational stage, the stereotypes, language issues and cultural disparities that follow, and ultimately the insufficient media coverage and compensation that afflicts elite professional athletes seeking full recognition for their talents. The journey of the female athlete is often discouraging, and despite progress achieved during the Title IX era, gender equity in athletics has a long way to go.

Who’s in it. TOMBOY stars Billie Jean King as Herself, Ann Meyers Drysdale as Herself, Cappie Pondexter as Herself and Lindsey Vonn as Herself, among others.
