L'histoire vraie de deux agents de joueurs de basket qui se sont battus pour intégrer le monde de la NBA Avec Jean-Pascal Zadi et Raphaël Quenard

Synopsis

In Amiens, Jérémy spends his days behind the counter of a video rental store, far from the American courts he admires on VHS tapes. Meanwhile, Bouna is busy cleaning at Orly Airport, with no Wi-Fi or clear prospects in sight. Nothing indicates that they’re destined to break into the highly competitive world of professional basketball, let alone carve out a place for themselves there.
