Resistance comes in many forms as seen in this programme of eight narrative short films about resisting those who would, for example, erase your cultural identity (Beyond the Rush); control or dismiss women’s rights over their bodies (Endolife/Egg Timer); coerce you into committing a capital offence (Mum’s the Word) or stop you from reaching the top in the traditionally male world of motor racing (Set Pace).
