the Sean Bell All-Starsa collaboration between photographer Jon Lopez and filmmaker Raafi Rivero
This film profiles Rah Wiggins, coach of New York City's most prolific street basketball team, The Sean Bell All-Stars, who've dominated the summer tournament scene for more than 20 years.
After the NYPD's infamous killing of Sean Bell in 2006, Coach Wiggins renamed the team after his fallen friend. In this short documentary Coach Wiggins visits his former neighborhood in Queens, where his friendship with Sean Bell once blossomed. And we get a coach's view inside a tournament game at Gersh Park in Brooklyn.
