Inspiring, extraordinary documentary!!!

I was so moved by this inspiring, extraordinary documentary film. I laughed, cried, and cheered. It is such beautiful storytelling of the human condition: trials, tribulations, and triumph. I was inspired by each and every person featured in the documentary. The documentary is beautifully shot and the storytelling is amazing...you really get to know everyone on this film and it's such a loving, personal, and triumphant tribute to the players of the Miami Heat Wheels wheelchair basketball team. Most importantly it shows us how to do what we love, to pursue our dreams, to be unstoppable, and to be limitless.

A captivating look

The Rebound plays like a thrilling sports movie, with colorful characters and a nail-biting finale. But the heart of the Rebound is in its empathetic look at the overlooked community of disabled basketball players. Beautifully shot and directed, perfectly edited and structured, the film never condescends to its subjects, instead it comes alongside them, giving ample weight to what the players' have overcome in their lives and the sports aspirations they all hold for their athletic passions. The Rebound is one of the best documents on disability in America that I've seen. (Watched with a sold out crowd at the Naples International Film Festival).

Inspiring!

This documentary is amazing. These athletes are incredible. I also really like how this film shows you what's going on off the court as well. Get ready to cry, but in a good way.

Outstanding documentary!!

The Rebound is an outstanding documentary! Compelling, exciting, emotional, and educational. Action packed for sports fans, depth of characters to keep you hooked, and expert production for visual appeal. You enter into the world of wheelchair basketball as an onlooker, and end up as a forever fan. Along with competitive sport, you come to know and love the main characters, their families, and their friends. If you are new to the world of adaptive sport, this is a great place to start to gain awareness, and to begin to understand the experiences and lives of players in the NWBA. Highly, highly recommend!!
