MAY 7: HELL ON WHEELS

Roller derby has come full-tilt. It's on like Donkey Kong, as they say; but this wasn't always the case. Way back when (2001), in Austin, a group of tough-ass women with a passion resurrected the past, with added badass attitude, and created the roller-skating beast we know today. Friday, the national champion Oly Rollers will host director Bob Ray for a screening of Hell on Wheels, his award-winning documentary about how it all began. Ray will answer questions after the screening.
