Why Not?

Directed by Tevin Tavares
2021Documentary, Short,
9.9
A gritty and raw story of self-discovery. The film highlights the multitude of other opportunities and career paths available to explore when a basketball-obsessed teen is challenged to find another purpose and not be defined by just a ball and a rim. We hope this film resonates and challenges the old school, narrow thought framework of what it means to be successful and Black.
