A Day on the Force @ Siskel Film Center

If you missed last year's film A Day on the Force: Women's Professional Tackle Football when it was screened in June, you have a second chance to catch it tonight at 5:00 at the Siskel Film Center. The film follows the Chicago Force football team through their inaugural season in the new Independent Women's Football League. Even if you've seen it already, the film has been updated and re-edited, so you might want to check it out again. Co-director Ronit Bazalel, members of the Chicago Force, and other members of the film crew will be on hand to discuss the film. Siskel Film Center: 164 N. State. (312) 846-2600.

A group of women that attended the recent March for Women's Lives in Washington DC will be speaking at Women and Children First this afternoon at 4:30 PM, to discuss how to use the momentum from one of the largest marches in the nation's recent history. Women and Children First: 5233 N. Clark. (773) 769-9299.
