Hoop Dreams: True Story of Hardship and Triumph, the

Descriere: For nearly five years Arthur Agee's and William Gates' remarkable lives were chronicled by a team of filmmakers. Roughly 250 hours of film were devoted to their journeys from the playgrounds to high school competition to college recruitment and -- whittled down to three hours -- it became the award-winning film Hoop Dreams.

It is an intimate look, complete with an up-to-date epilogue on the latest developments in their lives.
