A new documentary, The Heart of the Game follows an unconventional girls' high school basketball coach in Washington state and tracks the conflicts that arise over the fate of a star player.
Coach Bill Resler is at the center of the action in a film that offers a parallel... though not an exact one... to Steve James' well-received 1994 documentary Hoop Dreams.
