Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Tailor-made for people who get choked up at a comeback and fans of a well-timed joke. The sport matters, but the people playing it matter more. If you loved Coach Carter or King Richard, start here.
The mood
Funny with heart.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 2 hr.
What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Geneva, Switzerland 1935. The first European Basketball Championship is about to take place. Basketball is still an unknown sport in Europe, and the national teams are meeting for the first time. Each wants the honour of being the first champion. Meanwhile in Latvia, coach Baumanis is convinced that he can assemble a team and take it to Geneva. He quickly learns however, that triumph and defeat are also part of the game. Coach Baumanis faces many difficulties, as well as unexpected help from those closest to him.
