Angels of Dirt

Milwaukee Film Festival

West Allis native Charlotte Kainz was born to race motorcycles. Growing up among racers and mechanics at a rural Wisconsin track, Charlotte held her own, relentlessly pursuing her desire to be a professional racer in the bruising, adrenaline-fueled world of flat track. Featuring interviews with many Milwaukee racing figures, this documentary traces Charlotte's meteoric rise in the sport despite barriers facing women.
