Hoop Dreams (1994)
Partendo da 250 ore di materiale filmato, Steve James monta una storia-verità considerata tra i migliori documentari sportivi. William Gates e Arthur Agee, due giovani afroamericani, durante gli anni del liceo mentre perfezionano le loro abilità nel basket nella speranza di ottenere una borsa di studio e sognando di giocare nell'NBA. Entrambi mostrano un grande potenziale e il Basket offre loro una enorme possibilità, frequentare un esclusivo college di soli bianchi.
