Kelley Lee is a 60-year-old mother, wife, Ph.D., university professor, and hockey player. To Kelley, hockey is more than a hobby; it's her passion. The upcoming Canada 55+ Games in Kamloops is a milestone for Kelley as she prepares to compete at a national level. Kelley and her teammates have encountered many obstacles to getting on the ice. Their years of being physically able to play hockey are becoming numbered. Kelley reflects on her hockey career and the racial and gender barriers she has faced in a male-dominated sport.
In OVERTIME, a young filmmaker documents her mother's journey. They explore what it means to be a Chinese-Canadian woman in hockey and reflect on how the sport has shaped their relationship. This documentary celebrates Kelley’s passion and fight to play the sport she loves. It is a hockey story but, at its core, it’s also a story about an underdog fighting for her dreams.
