A documentary about female jockeys

Jock Synopsis

The documentary "JOCK" peels back the brightly colored silks and race day pageantry of the Sport of Kings-revealing the ruthless world of thoroughbred horse racing-by telling the story of the female jockeys who waged a gallant fight for the right to ride."JOCK" is a story of sexual harassment, ridicule, life-threatening compromises, and the thrill of victory-told through interviews and archival footage featuring pioneers like; Mary Bacon-the brash beauty who broke over 50 bones, posed nude in Playboy, and was a KKK sympathizer; Robin Smith-the Hollywood starlet turned jockey who rode for Alfred Vanderbilt and later married Fred Astaire; and Diane Crump- who became the first woman to compete against men in the prestigious Kentucky Derby. From race-wining thrills to career-ending spills, "JOCK" is the story of the courageous women who used passion as a weapon in the sexual revolution, and paid a price with their lives.
