 From Academy
Award®-nominated director Gus Van Sant and starring Academy
Award®-winning actor Sean Connery, a drama about a unique
relationship between an eccentric, reclusive novelist and a young,
black, amazingly gifted scholar-athlete.
After the novelist discovers that the young athlete is also
an excellent writer and secretly takes him on as his protégé,
they develop an unlikely friendship. As they learn more about
each other, they learn more about themselves, and ultimately,
with the help of his new mentor, the basketball star must choose
the right path between following his writing dreams or his hoop
dreams.
