KING JAMES
By Rajiv Joseph
Directed by Ryan George
Starring Doug Harris and Blake Morris
Matt and Shawn, two
Clevelanders, forge an unlikely connection over their shared
passion for the Cleveland Cavaliers and rising basketball star LeBronJames.
Spanning 12 years, their friendship is shaped by the triumphs
and challenges of both fandom and life itself. From Pulitzer

funny and heartfelt look at loyalty, ambition, and celebrates
the connections that keep us going.
