 Description
[Machine Translation] In 2019, the Japanese men's national basketball team participated in the FIBA Basketball World Cup, losing all five games against world-class opponents and finishing 31st out of 32 participating countries. 2021, the team participated in the Tokyo Olympics as the "host nation," but suffered three consecutive losses to superior opponents and lost in the preliminary league. The Japanese men's national basketball team cannot win in the world," said the media. In September 2021, with headwinds blowing, Tom Horvath, former head of the women's national basketball team, was appointed as the new HC of the men's national basketball team. The coach, who led Japan's women's team to a silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics, built a new team with a strategy and passion to compete with the world. In August 2023, the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 will begin. While the world was buzzing about the "Group of Death," a group of powerful nations, HC Horvath continued to inspire the players to challenge the world with the word "BELIEVE" for the team. The distressing scenes during practice, the proclamations in the locker room, his passion for Japanese basketball, and many other moments that could only be captured by the close-contact cameras. In addition, interviews with HC Tom Horvath and the national team players are newly recorded. The film opens the story of the men who believed in the dawn of Japanese basketball and never gave up.
