Virtual Q & A with the Filmmakers of Breaking Boundaries

Join us for a discussion with Nastasya Generalova and documentarian Dina Burlis about their film Breaking Boundaries.

Californian teenager, Nastasya Generalova, was raised by her single white Russian mother, Olga who enrolled Nastasya in rhythmic gymnastics when she was four years old as a way for her to connect to the homeland. This film looks at Nastasya's personal journey of expression as the only black girl in Team USA, as well as her relationship with her mother in the stressful lead up to Tokyo Olympics qualification.
