Granny’s Got Game, a documentary film by Angela Alford about a senior women’s basketball team, will have a North Carolina premiere on Monday, May 20th at 7:00 pm. I’ve heard so much about the film from Angela and I’m so glad there will be a local screening. I hope to be there.

Here are a few words from the filmmaker:

After two and half years of work, I’m very excited about this local premiere.  It will be a chance for the audience to not only see the film, but meet these inspiring women in person.  I’m proud that Granny’s Got Game is a film about strong women without a vapid love story, a film about seniors that doesn’t poke fun at them, a film about sports where winning isn’t the most important thing, and a documentary that will leave you uplifted.  We are hoping to have a big crowd to not only honor these amazing women, but to demonstrate that there is interest in this kind of film.

— Angela Alford
