“GV13 is very well done, good pacing,
Set inside the secular underground world of today’s Women’s Roller Derby, the filmmaker probes the ‘serious’ gritty reality behind over three dozen Derby women of varying ages and sizes, who have chosen to adopt super-hero and in some cases anti-hero personas and attitudes to play this exciting, hard-hitting and incredibly difficult and fast-paced action sport.
“Roller Derby Gurls are tough-minded, intelligent women of all ages, psychologies, cultures and professions who have fiercely committed themselves to succeed in a grueling hands-on transformative discipline. These ROLLER GURLS have morphed themselves from working women during the day, into world class competitive warrior athletes by night,” observed Mr. Bryan.

“GV13 ROLLER GURL is probably not what people (non-derby) will expect in a derby documentary. It is however, at least from my experience, an excellent and dynamic portrayal of the girls behind the derby names. ‘Game-Time’ captures the Soul of Derby!” - Nerd Badger (Tracie Scott), Inter-league Relations, E-Ville Roller Derby League, Alberta, Australia-Member of Canadian Women’s Roller Derby Association
In this organized and rule-based world of Roller Derby, these women lustfully battle each other, deploying skilled defensive and offensive combative strategies that utilizes no balls whatsoever!
“You see, there’s no balls in Roller Derby. What makes Roller Derby unique is that the offensive scoring object is a girl with a star on the side of her helmet. Essentially, ‘the Jammer’ is the ball and she’s bowling thru all these players... We don’t need a ball, we’ve got a human!” - GoGo Gidget, Bench Coach and Player for Angel City Derby Girls (ACDG)
Professionally shot and sensitively directed by Bob Bryan, GV13 ROLLER GURL features the magnificent women of ‘Angel City Derby Girls’ (Flat Track league) and ‘Long Beach Roller Derby’ (Bank Track League) located in Southern California. Relentless Derby Action while intuitively embedded with an accessible, perceptive and incredibly thoughtful interview narrative. GV13 is a hugely intense, entertaining and a thought-provoking original production!!
