Cheerleaders - an American Myth 2011

Directed by Olivier Joyard

Smiling young girls wearing brightly colored uniforms kick and gyrate, cheering on sportsmen, under the sunny skies of Texas, Arizona or California. They are a triumphant, radiant and at times, sexually ambiguous youth, from deepest traditional America. We want to invite viewers to travel to the land of the cheerleaders - an America of real and imaginary women.
