"Torched" Documentary Private Screening
Torched tells the story of a group of women/non-binary athletes in Austin who are trying to legitimize and professionalize their fringe sport of Ultimate Frisbee in a historically male-dominated sports industry. Intent on being more than just another sports team, their commitment to various community initiatives is as important to them as their performance on the field. A wild and fiery bunch befitting their name, their journey from inception in 2018 to the upcoming 2023 season has been derailed countless times. As they balance their personal and professional lives with their passion for sports and activism, their resolve is often tested, but never (so far) defeated. This is an underdog story about a tight-knit group of athletes continuing to follow a dream even when there are countless reasons to quit and focus on "real life", whatever that is.
Torched is presented in association with Spin Ultimate. Founded in 2007, Spin Ultimate is one of the largest Ultimate Frisbee apparel companies in the United States and the world. Spin provides high quality, affordable uniforms and gear for Ultimate teams, players, and fans.
