The Knuckle Princess
#choosetochallenge
To highlight International Women’s day, Hazazah launches the short film The Knuckle Princess; an ode to Eri Yoshida who, as a 16 year old girl, became Japan’s first and only female baseball player that competed equally among the men in the professional baseball league.
It is about our inner voice calling us. A voice that challenges our beliefs. A voice that inspires us to pursue our dreams - how unattainable they may seem. And if we dare to listen to this voice and find the courage to trust it, it will lift us up. It will let us fly.
Inspired by the poem ' Come to the Edge' by Christopher Logue.
