About THE WAITING GAME:
THE WAITING GAME is a powerful documentary that reveals an incredible battle between the NBA and a tiny not for profit working to gain full recognition for the men of the ABA -- a colorful, exciting, rival league that arguably invented the modern game of basketball. It's a fight for benefits the players of the ABA felt were promised, but never delivered. While following an investigation of the legal trail of the ABA-NBA merger, key impact journalism and the advocacy for justice, the film reveals the lines that can stand between raw corporate interest and basic human dignity.
As part of Park Theater's INDIE FILMMAKER SHOWCASE, we premiere a new film and host a Q&A with the filmmakers each weekend in September. Print the entire schedule here:
