"GV13 is very well done, good pacing, and an accurate depiction of one of the lesser known sports. Filmmaker Bob Bryan did an excellent job using natural sound and numerous sources to tell the story. Obviously he put a lot of work into this documentary that's a 'must-see' for anyone involved in Roller Derby, but would also be entertaining to the non-sports fan." - Mike Scott, KSPR Sports Director 'Insightful and revealing,' GV13 is a honest straight-up, no-frills, stripped-down documentary film about contemporary women who ignore societies naive programmed gender stereotypes regarding women's lack of aggressiveness, physicality and strategic skill-sets.
