Coach Carter
It begins on the street. It ends here.
Based on an incredible true story, Coach Carter is the inspirational account of contronversial basketball coach Ken Carter (Samuel L Jackson), who received both high praise and staunch criticism when he made national news for a gymnasium “lockout” of his entire undefeated team for poor academic performance.
With players, the parents, and the community rallying to get the team back on court, Carter must overcome the obstacles of his environment and show the young men a future that stretches beyond the gangs, drugs, prison and even the basketball.
