Between scoring goals and making chest bumps, the Mighty Cheetahs put on quite a display when they’re playing their best soccer.
It’s a display that looks a bit unusual coming from a soccer team of sweet-faced third-grade girls, especially when the Cheetahs are playing against – and beating – teams made up of boys.
“Kick Like A Girl,” a 23-minute film about the Cheetahs’ two seasons playing in a boys division, will be screened in Bangor on Tuesday, May 6, at Husson College’s Richard Dyke Center for Family Business. The showing, which is free, starts at 8 a.m.
There will be a panel discussion after the show. Other showings will be held next week in Portland, Waterville, Augusta, Hallowell and Lewiston.
The film’s writer, director and producer is Jenny MacKenzie, a New York native who has summered all her life in Boothbay.
