Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film focuses on the lawsuit filed by the US Women's National Team against U.S. Soccer for alleged wage discrimination. A ruling was made on May 1st, 2020, when the judge sided with the U.S. Soccer Federation, stating the women's team had been paid more - both in totality and on a per-game basis - than the men's team, and that no discrimination occurred.
Featured review
A Good Entry Into This Topic
This film is entertaining, educational, and enlightening. My only criticism is the film feels more like a PR pitch ("why the women deserve equal pay rates") than an analysis of the legal case. The US Soccer Federation refused to participate, so there's no "other side" presented. The women do absolutely deserve the opportunity to make equal pay rates to the men. But I would have liked to learn more about the counter arguments (for the sake of being better informed). There is a brief recap at the end where Megan does give a bit of context to the counter argument.
I hope more people will post reviews of the film itself. Currently the documentary has a very poor overall score due to 1 star reviews from users who are personally offended by the concept of gender equality (but have nothing direct to say about the film).
