In 1951, an unknown squash player from the newly formed country of Pakistan stunned the squash world when he won the British Open and changed the sport forever. KEEP EYE ON BALL: THE HASHIM KHAN STORY traces the extraordinary life of Pakistan’s first national hero, the father of modern squash and a proud Pashtun. The film is more than the remarkable story of this squash legend. It goes beyond the four walls of the squash court, tracing Hashim’s story from a turbulent moment in the history of three nations – England, India and Pakistan – to his life as a Muslim in post-9/11 America.
In association with newportFILM, Rhody Squash is pleased to present a special screening of KEEP EYE ON BALL: THE HASHIM KHAN STORY on Wednesday, May 23, at The Casino Theatre in Newport. Wine reception at 6:00 pm, film at 7:00pm, followed by post screening Q&A with film producer Beth Rasin.
