The Story
PACE is a story by girls about girls. Earlier this year, a high school swimmer in Alaska blew the competition out of the water in her 100-yard freestyle. She should have won, but found she was disqualified when she got out of the water due to the way her swimsuit fit her body. Written by Natalie Kulick in her "Writing the Short" class, PACE shows how girls like her are affected by how their bodies are perceived by adults and our peers.
The Team
Our director, editor, director of photography, and producer are all female filmmakers. Our team is comprised of a diverse group of Boston University students who devoted their time and effort to a feminist story.

The Budget
If you would like to know more information about where your money goes, feel free to email us at [email protected] for a full copy of our budget and expenses! We want to be as transparent as possible to our supporters.
Risks & Challenges
At this point, our pre-production and production has wrapped! Everything has been shot, and we're moving on to editing, scoring, and colorgrading. We already have a rough cut and are ready to move into the last stages of post-production. This is good news for you because most of our challenges have already passed and there is practically no risk.
We had a lot preparation to make sure that we spent our money responsibly, since members of the team spent their own rent and tuition money to cover initial costs. Your donation will help us students!

What’s Next?
After we raise funds, we will work until our final screening in May to get PACE just right. From there, we will begin to submit to film festivals and look into distribution! Very cool!
