Rise Above: The Journey To College Basketball

In this coming-of-age documentary journey, three under-the-radar high school basketball players navigate the uncertainty of their futures amidst a volatile recruiting landscape. Aided by their coach, these players must overcome injuries, the daunting recruiting challenges of modern-day college athletics, and personal tragedies off the court, all to achieve a shared dream: to play college basketball.

My take

A stirring documentary that captures the raw vulnerability of young athletes chasing their dreams against the odds. You'll feel the weight of their struggle and the quiet determination that drives them—it's the kind of story that reminds you why perseverance matters.
