Featuring intense, imperfect heroines, THE FURIES is the first female-driven sports comedy from Quebec. When Waterloo gets its new semi-pro men’s hockey team, the local women’s amateur leagues are kicked out of the arena. Determined to avenge their lost ice time, an impulsive hockey player and a ruthless octogenarian — once a roller derby legend — come up with a plan: to recruit the town’s outcasts and form an underground roller derby team. With the backing of the Knitting Circle, they’ll prove that women’s sports can ignite crowds — and that sisterhood is the ultimate act of resistance.
