Starting from humble beginnings in the backyard of an apartment building, surrounded by zero lights and a concrete ground, the D.C. Divas have now become one of the most well-known names in the Women’s Football Alliance. The documentary combines both present-day footage of the team, historical footage of not only their beginnings, but also key events which inspired the increase of women playing football (such as the Women’s Equality March), and commentary from former and current team members who explain how the team has evolved since their creation in 2001.
