Text of the introduction by Joseph Planta:

I am Planta: On the Line, in Vancouver, British Columbia, at TheCommentary.ca.

Having its television debut today is a new documentary Overtime. It follows Vancouver’s Kelley Lee Gilmore, a 60-year-old mother, wife, doctor, university professor, and hockey player. Hockey is more than a hobby, it’s been a passion taking her to the Canada 55+ Games as she competes nationally. The filmmaker Jenny Lee-Gilmore, her daughter, chronicles her mother’s journey, and explores what it’s like to be a Chinese Canadian woman playing hockey. The relationship of mother and daughter is also examined, and makes for a moving, thoughtful, loving film. Jenny joins me now and I’ll ask her about her mom, making the movie, and what it was like to examine the parallels in their lives. Jenny Lee-Gilmore is a British born Chinese Canadian actor and filmmaker based here in Vancouver. She completed her BFA in Film Production at the University of British Columbia. Her debut short film Breakaway was a critical hit, and played at film festivals across North America. The film is available worldwide at watch.telusoriginals.com, and on TELUS Optik TV Channel 8. The film was written and directed by Jenny Lee-Gilmore, who joined me from here in Vancouver last week. Please welcome to the Planta: On the Line program, Jenny Lee-Gilmore; Ms. Lee-Gilmore, good morning.
