Compelling documentary about the golden age of West Indian cricket and the racial attitudes of the 1970s and 80s.

I have never seen a film which has focused so much on one side of cricket's history. A very emotional and enjoyable film which can be summed up as a rollercoaster ride of a film as it takes you through the lives that that the West Indies Cricket Team led and how they felt representing their "state". I would sum this film up as the best sport documentary you are going to see this year.
