Thanks to Transmission films we have a few copies of Ride Like a Girl to give away.

As a little girl, Michelle Payne (Teresa Palmer) dreams of the impossible: winning the Melbourne Cup — horse-racing’s toughest two-mile race. The youngest of 10 children, Michelle is raised by single father Paddy (Sam Neill).

She leaves school at 15 to become a jockey and after early failures she finds her feet, but a family tragedy, followed by her own near fatal horse fall all but ends the dream. But with the love of her dad and her brother Stevie, Michelle will not give up. Against all the medical advice, and the protests of her siblings, she rides on, and meets the Prince of Penzance. Together they overcome impossible odds for a shot at the dream: a ride in the 2015 Melbourne Cup, at odds of 100 to 1.

The rest is history.

Ride Like A Girl is the incredible true story of Michelle Payne.

Directed by Rachel Griffiths, written by Andrew Knight and Elise McCredie and produced by Richard Keddie, Rachel Griffiths and Susie Montague, Ride Like a Girl stars Teresa Palmer, Sam Neill, Sullivan Stapleton, Stevie Payne (as himself), Genevieve Morris and Magda Szubanski.
