Adam Yauch, USA, 2008, 90’,
English with Turkish subtitles
Directed by Adam Yauch (founding member of the Beastie Boys), the film follows eight of the country’s premiere high school basketball players on the fast track to the NBA, as they are adored by fans, wooed by colleges and sneaker companies, and groomed to be in the spotlight of the multi-million dollar game.

Screenings can be seen with a discounted museum ticket (8 TL). No reservations taken.
