In our film, we are considering making a film about a female racecar driver. Women are usually considered to be bad drivers and never able to make it to the big leagues in racing. This is primarily because there is a common thought that women can only ride horses and be pretty and can't get down and dirty and drive like a man can. In our movie, we would like to challenge this thought to show the beginnings of a girl becoming a driver. Her dream since she was little. 

Women are usually considered to be terrible drivers. They don't look both ways before crossing, they are always crashing and making dumb decisions while driving. Even worse, in the racing community, it is very rare for there to be female drivers, especially at the pro level. Women are seen as too gentle and too pretty to be able to get to the same level as males and aren't able to achieve the same level that men are.

In our movie, we would like to challenge this common misconception and show that some girls are capable of being good drivers, even reaching the level and higher than most male drivers can reach. We can do this by showing a normal pretty girl driving racing, and performing the same as her male counterpart. It is super important that we make sure that she is shown as a typical girl that can do regular girl things too.
