Trailblazers is a Savage Films, Milestone Films, and LM Films production by Director/Producers Maggie Miles and Maggie Eudes and Producer Lucy Maclaren.

Trailblazers tells the story of the fight for equality by Australia’s female footballers. It celebrates the rise of Australian women’s football from the early days of paying-to-play in front of small crowds to appearing in sold-out stadiums, watched by over 11 million people at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. 

The Cool.org resources and impact campaign are supported by major partner MECCA M-POWER and driven by Documentary Australia. The Trailblazers campaign aims to build momentum for further progress in gender equality and leadership and to increase investment and opportunities for women and girls to participate in sports.

If Trailblazers has inspired your students to take action, they can #Blaze a Trail for gender equality by take part in campaigns and sharing their commitment with the world.
