Synopsis of the book:
To what extent are there sexist prejudices in sport? Are sportswomen discriminated against by the federations? And by the media? Do sports journalists have to overcome obstacles in the performance of their profession because they are women? How does cinema portray women's sport?... These questions are reflected on in this work, which may be useful for students of Communication Sciences, Educational Sciences, Psychology or Law. This text, written by a group of professionals committed and enthusiastic about overcoming sexist prejudices, aims to encourage a critical sense in both students and the general public.
Screening of Tangier Gool
Juan Gautier, Spain, 2015, 80 min.
Synopsis:
Tangier Gool is a new portrait of Arab youth. The documentary tells the story of Fatima who works at Arej, a local association in Tangier's Bir Chifa neighbourhood. One afternoon she meets the 'Gazelles du Strait', a local women's football team. With very few fans behind them, they survive thanks to the passion and effort of all of them. With the help of several friends, Fatima decides to help them by setting up a women's football match with a Spanish team to create an event in the city, promote women's sport and a meeting between cultures.
