Synopsis
Despite being the greatest single-game scorer in college basketball history, Kevin Bradshaw’s life was wrecked by the terror he suffered as a child and anger he often took out against whites in his home town. Left for dead on the streets, he remarkably found a new life in Israel, where he scored 101 points in a game and became that country’s first African American coach of a professional team. In this new land thousands of miles away – in a kibbutz – he also fell in love with a woman who would help him find redemption and the strength to return home and reunite with his family for the first time in twenty years.
