Welcome to the ACES & KNAVES special screening in celebration of the upcoming BAMSA 2021 Conference—a free virtual event featuring 60 speakers from 20 countries, including a keynote presentation on wellbeing by psychologist Martin Seligman and panel discussions with European Bridge League President Jan Kamras and world champion Boye Brogeland. Half the ticket proceeds will go to supporting the work of BAMSA (Bridge: A MindSport For All) at the University of Stirling.

ACES & KNAVES is a tale of triumph and tears, points and partners, and crime and punishment, told by world champions and mere mortals alike, including Bill Gates! You can stream the hour-long documentary at your convenience through July 11th.

Your ticket includes a recording of a live Zoom conversation on Sunday, May 23rd with director Jackie Paré, bridge legend Zia Mahmood, and BAMSA founder and international bridge player Samantha Punch. Sam is Chair of Sociology at the University of Stirling and has made bridge the focus of her research. Zia, Jackie, and Sam answered questions about the film and discussed the crossover of ideas between ACES & KNAVES and many of the topics that will be featured at the conference.
