Playing Like a Girl: The House That Rob Built
Feature Film
Emmy® and Christopher Award-winning true story of the powerhouse University of Montana’s Lady Griz basketball team and their pioneering coach Rob Selvig. Available Now on PBS.
In an era when gender discrimination in sports was the norm, Coach Selvig built a "house" of inclusion and empowerment by recruiting female athletes from the ranches, farms, and Native reservations of Big Sky Country. For nearly 40 years, these athletes would establish the preeminent women’s basketball program west of the Rockies.
Native Ball: Legacy of a Trailblazer
Documentary (Short Film)
Each year in the U.S., nearly 5,000 high-school girls’ basketball players earn a full-ride Division I scholarship. In 1992, only one was Native American: Blackfeet Nation’s Malia Kipp. Living in two worlds presented challenges, but Kipp carried the burden with grace and grit.
Described by her chief as “a warrior,” she blazed a heroic and inspiring trail for other Native girls to follow.

Grace in Grief: Hope After Loss
Grief is all-consuming. Grief is all-too-common. Sometimes, it seems like grief is all there is. The earthly world is truly a vale of tears. Every day, there’s some tragic news: every day, someone loses a spouse, a child, or the will to live itself.
In Grace in Grief: Hope After Loss, the new video series by Family Theater Productions, survival of loss is exactly what we’ll explore. Through interviews with the brokenhearted and healed, those weeping and those praying, we will raise awareness about the process of grief.

We encourage couples watching this series to look at themselves, in both their joys and sorrows, as working together towards better communication, authenticity, and intimacy.
