A year after the devastation wreaked by Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans basketball coach Al Collins (Forest Whitaker) assembles a disparate team of players from those left behind and those who held out against the flood. Driven by past failures and a consuming desire to win, Collins teaches his squad the spirit of survival, how to work as a team and a "never say die" attitude. With the state championships looming, can Coach Collins lead his team to victory against all the odds? (High Fliers Films)
