About the film
“An Extraordinary True Story.”
Every school day, African-American teenagers William Gates and Arthur Agee travel 90 minutes each way from inner-city Chicago to St. Joseph High School in Westchester, Illinois, a predominately white suburban school well-known for the excellence of its basketball program.

This acclaimed documentary was shot over the course of five years.
