The story is simple and old, which can happen in any country, any time. But the movie is unique and fresh - its success results from the genuine feeling it brings to the audience.

Lin Haoran, the director of the movie "Slam", graduated from both New York Film Academy & Beijing Film Academy of China. He has ove 10 years experience in short movies. Maybe that well explains how he managed to make his "Slam" different from other sports-themed movies. Through his telling of the three boys fighting to win a basketball game story, Lin Haoran presents a vivid life scenery of Beijing juveniles with prints of the modern time. When I watch those boys and girls talking on the big screen, I have the exactly feeling when I standing on any streets in the city with middle school students laughing beside.

If the movie makes people feel it's real and it's just their own life, it will be so easy to conquer its audience, to say nothing of letting them cheer or cry for it.
