Silver Reunion

13 min

A quiet, reflective documentary short that turns a long-ago sports grievance into a tense, intimate debate about pride and closure.

Overview: During the summer of 2012, a secret meeting took place. But this was no ordinary gathering; instead, a monumental choice was to be made. Reuniting over four decades after the USA men's Olympic basketball team controversially lost the gold to the Russians and declined the silver medal, the 12 team members reunited in Lexington, Ky. to make a decision. And like the jury in "12 Angry Men," the verdict needed to be unanimous -- accept, or forever refuse the medals for a game many of them believe they never lost.
How it feels: Melancholic, tense and earnest. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Memory, justice, identity, betrayal
Content: Mild language. No violence, gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
