Basketball wisdom...
At a time when basketball documentaries are prolific, HOOPTIME takes the conversation to another level.
Rather than focusing on statistics, championships, or performance alone, the film explores the emotional and philosophical side of the game.
Gathering renowned basketball players, coaches, journalists, scouts, agents, personal trainers, league founders, artists, hoopers, and influencers, HOOPTIME shares what basketball has taught them personally through the years.
More than a sports documentary, it is a reflection on the values, friendships, resilience, creativity, and life lessons that basketball inspires far beyond the court.
A Feature Documentary About Basketball Wisdom
Gathering renowned basketball players, coaches, agents, personal trainers, league founders and hoopers sharing what basketball taught them, through the years, on a personal level…
HOOPTIME takes a new angle on basketball, sharing the emotional and philosophical side of it.
Awarded director Rami Mekdachi edited 15 years of travel footage, talks, games and an original unreleased soundtrack.
“My intention is to inspire hoopers of every age and share what basketball brings into our lives, beyond the winning and losing system, beyond the athletic struggles and achievements… realizing how basketball is an endless source of wisdom and meaningful encounters… How it is an art form and a grand scenic game.”
