The Other Dream Team (2012)

Man I love a good sports doc, and when it's in the context of one of the most noted political collapses of our time, well then you've got something. Also, as if this basketball doc was tailor made for me, the Grateful Dead emerge as unexpected heroes who fund an Olympic journey!!
