Experience a unique screening of Christy, starring Sydney Sweeney. The film tells the remarkable story of professional boxer Christy Martin, one of the first women to gain recognition in the male-dominated world of boxing, and the personal obstacles she overcame along the way. The film was featured at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Watch the trailer here.
