Hoop Dreams

Universally considered one of the best documentaries of all time, HOOP DREAMS tells the story of two ordinary inner-city kids who dare to dream the impossible—professional basketball glory. Filmed over a five-year period, HOOP DREAMS follows young Arthur Agee and William Gates as they navigate the complex, competitive world of scholastic athletics while striving to overcome the intense pressures of family life and the realities of their Chicago streets. Sundance Now is proud to present this landmark documentary chronicling two remarkable families who challenge the American dream. Directed by Steve James.

Steve James’ legendary smash hit doc follows two African-American high-school basketball players who dream of making it big.
