In the film category, the prestige season began last week with “His Three Daughters.” Today we continue that phase with the release of Les Ball, an all-new sports drama that seeks to authentically tell the story of a high school basketball team. It’s mostly young kids of Native American descent (and mostly unknown actors). Their team is struggling to keep their hopes of winning the championship alive.
In a three-star review published a little earlier today, Andrew Morgan concluded:
“Rez Ball is a sports story worth telling in a community that doesn’t get much attention. The game doesn’t necessarily live up to the great basketball movies of late (even Hustle on Netflix), but The background of the lives of the Navajo people and the issues that plague them, combined with the resilience and strength that their culture brings, create a unique and fascinating sport. Story by Julia Jones, Zoe Reyes, and Team. Newcomer Kauchani Bratt’s strong performance as leader Jimmy brings the more emotional parts of the film to life.
