The Masculinity Project: Remix: Slaying Goliath 8mins
Produced by Joe Brewster and Michele Stephenson
This remixed short from the feature "Slaying Goliath" explores the politics of sport and its relation to established roles of masculinity through the eyes of 11-year-old basketball players, their families, and a larger than life coach who seeks to make an impact in their lives. On their way to learning the true meaning of victory, the boys are fueled by energy from all sides.
