Directed by Jessie Maple • 1989 • United States
Starring Pamela McGee, Paula McGee, Cynthia Cooper-Dyke

The second feature by pioneering director Jessie Maple is a wonderfully relaxed, comic portrait of twin sister basketball players Caren and Camilla Parker (played by real-life twins and NCAA basketball stars Pamela and Paula McGee) competing to be the first draft pick in the women’s professional league (here, the “MBA,” anticipating the future WNBA). With her keen eye for telling details honed through her documentary work, Maple explores questions of sisterhood, ambition, and what it means to succeed as a young Black woman in America.
