Derby Crazy Love

Derby Crazy Love is a Canadian documentary film directed by Maya Gallus and Justine Pimlott of Red Queen Productions, and distributed by Women Make Movies.

[5] This film captures how roller derby is part of punk’s counterculture, which tackles issues of masculinity, femininity, aggression, body image, queer identity, and gender norms.

Gallus states, "Nobody’s making a big feminist point or a queer statement, [derby] just is inclusive.

[8] Montreal’s team leader, Smack Daddy, summarizes the spirit of derby: "The fact that you’re combining roller skating, which is like, ‘let’s hold hands and go to the roller-rink,’ with chicks beating on each other physically is like, fireworks.

"[9] The film features music by Montreal’s Plastik Patrik et les Brutes, Lesbians on Ecstasy, and New York’s Kissy Kamikaze.
