This joint is without a doubt the best documentary about pick-up basketball culture.
Perfectly documented and insanely beautiful, this film captures with precision the essence of a culture in lack of recognition (especially in France). By their work on the field (they basically played games on every single court in NYC for the purpose of the movie), Bobbito Garcia and Kevin Couliau not only pictured the perfect portrait of pick up basketball in the Mecca but also revealed the importance of a place in many urban cultures (basketball, Hip-Hop, Skate- boarding): "THE PARK"
A tale that I know any street basketball players all over the world will relate and I hope will inspire new players to come down to do it in the park...
