Chance the Rapper is producing a new documentary about basketball along with fellow Chicago native Dwyane Wade.
The documentary will be based on the lives of basketball players from a high school in Chicago.
The film chronicles the lives of Chicago’s Orr Academy basketball team as the young men try to balance their basketball lives with the violence and injustice they face living in the city. Shot in the Dark will also focus on the life of one the of team’s star players, Tyquone Greer, who notched the winning 3-point shot at one of his games and a week later, was shot in the leg at a local party.
“Shot in the Dark is an authentic and realistic look at high school sports in Chicago and what it means for our youth,” Chance said in a press release. “It’s not really a game for some of us.”
