This documentary tells the story of Hubert Davis, the son of a legendary Harlem Globetrotters player, Mel Davis. Mel goes around the world, and tries to juggle his life and time with his families. Hubert tries to set out to reconcile issues between his father and estranged family, but really ends up examining how his father affected his own life. This is a very touching and emotional story of mending relationships, and unconditional family love, and I think that a documentary was the only way to achieve that. It helped to show the reality of family life, and humanity within the characters. I found the film very visually pleasing and along with the chapter breaks, the piece had very good pacing. Although it was a short piece, it had just enough in it to stay relevant, and didn't really need to stretch it out any more.
