SPEED SISTERS, Directed by Amber Fares

Cambridge Film Festival's Jenny Nelson speaks with FilmBath’s executive director and founder of F-Rating Holly Tarquini about her "A Film I Love..."


Holly has chosen SPEED SISTERS from director Amber Fares.


The Speed Sisters are the first all-woman race car driving team in the Middle East. Grabbing headlines and turning heads at improvised tracks across the West Bank, these five women have sped their way into the heart of the gritty, male-dominated Palestinian street car-racing scene. Weaving together their lives on and off the track, SPEED SISTERS takes you on a surprising journey into the drive to go further and faster than anyone thought you could.

THE MISEDUCATION OF CAMERON POST, Directed by Desiree Akhavan

Chair of the Cambridge Film Trust Isabelle McNeill speaks about her time with the Festival, and her "A Film I Love..." selection of THE MISEDUCATION OF CAMERON POST.


Cameron Post looks the part of a perfect high school girl. But after she's caught with another girl in the backseat of a car, Cameron is quickly shipped off to a conversion therapy centre that treats teens "struggling with same-sex attraction."


Set during the 1990s, THE MISEDUCATION OF CAMERON POST is a throwback to a time of cassette tapes, frumpy knitwear and alternative rock music, but also one in which attitudes towards homosexual people were significantly more repressive in the US. However, this is not an issue of the past.
