This film delves into themes of inclusion, identity, and hand-drawn heroes, centered on mountain biker, skier, and artist Brooklyn Bell. Unable to find a hero, Bell created Ruby J, a comic character who became her powerful role model.

Inspired by Ruby, Bell embraced the mantra to "live like her, breathe like her, be unapologetically black like her," ultimately forging her own identity through a blend of dirt, snow, art, and inclusion.

Directed by Dave Mayers and produced by Lauren Cerre and Dave Mayers, the film features cinematography by Joey Schusler and Jika Gonzalez, editing by Cameron Dennis, music by Jameson Williams, and graphics by Brooklyn Bell and Kris Cave.
