In 1992 Chicago, as Michael Jordan solidifies himself as a champion, a story of two young legends in their own right begins. As wide-eyed and imaginative best friends Malik and Eric traverse the city, looking to escape the mundaneness of school and the hardships of growing up in public housing, their unbreakable bond is challenged when tragedy shakes their community just as they are learning to fly.
"A solid family drama anchored by warm visual language, deep empathy for its characters, and a wonderful performance from Jurnee Smollett." – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
