Beyond the Game:
The Official Film Companion
“The personal and relatable film interviews with these athletes, whether it be Hall of Fame inductee or rookie, transport us into the quintessential metaphor of sports mirroring life where athletes overcome adversity to attain triumph, mix grit with grace, and go from winless to national champions, to name just a few. It’s the unexpected, the buzzer beaters and Hail Mary’s of life, which impact their plans and values, as well as ours.
As we all know…it’s not always the superstar, but rather the unassuming and hardworking Cinderella that goes to the dance”
