SFFILM’s Billie Jean King documentary screening is *Give Me the Ball!*, not “Now Now,” and it is part of the 69th San Francisco International Film Festival. (sffilm.org 1) (sffilm.org 2) The film is directed by Liz Garbus and Elizabeth Wolff, runs 102 minutes, and is listed by SFFILM as a 2026 United States documentary. (sffilm.org) SFFILM says the documentary uses rare archival footage and candid interviews as King recounts the victories, struggles, and sacrifices behind her career. (sffilm.org) The festival listing says King’s story extends beyond tennis to her fight for equity in professional women’s sports. It also says the film covers the personal cost of that campaign, including hiding her sexual orientation and struggling with eating disorders. (sffilm.org) SFFILM scheduled two festival screenings: April 25, 2026, at 8:30 p.m. at the Premier Theater at One Letterman, and April 27, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. at BAMPFA in Berkeley.
