linsanity

The 2013 Asian American International Film Festival (AAIFF) is just around the corner, taking place from July 24th to August 3rd in New York City.

This year’s line-up of films is amazing, with an opening night presentation featuring Linsanity, a high energy film that documents Jeremy Lin’s sudden rise in the NBA, from bench warmer to hot commodity.

Official synopsis:

In 2012, Jeremy Lin, the first Chinese American to play in the NBA, swept the NBA and basketball fans by storm and created the Linsanity movement. LINSANITY brings back the unforgettable frenzy around the meteoric rise of Jeremy LIN with galvanizing game footage, juxtaposed with intimate interviews and home videos that showcase his faith, passion, and perseverance. As the Opening Night Presentation for AAIFF’13, LINSANITY marks the homecoming of the magical moment when a determined young man did what seemed impossible, and took everyone to the heights with him. #linsapiration
