Nobody would have bet on Jérémy, working behind a video store counter, or Bouna, cleaning at the airport. Without connections, money or much English, nothing suggested they would become NBA agents.

The heart of the film is [Ndiaye and Medjana's] friendship, and its message is that loyalty is an essential value, contested both on and off the field. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Fausto Fernandez Fotogramas Jul 23
3/5
And the film, sustained by the chemistry and affection between its two protagonists, thrives on a gentle, optimistic humanization of dehumanized capitalism...and through an epic of effort, luck, and the refusal to lose hope.
