The documentary on Stephen Curry, ‘Stephen Curry: Underrated’, will be screened during the 2023 Sundance Film Festival
NBA player Stephen Curry’s most recent documentary, Underrated, was chosen in the programme for the 2023 autumn Sundance Film Festival. The documentary, which was produced by Ryan Coogler and Erick Peyton of international reputation, was directed by the acclaimed director Peter Nicks.
The film offers a quick glimpse at NBA superstar Stephen Curry’s extraordinary upbringing at tiny Davidson College, where the team made an exciting roll in the 2008 NCAA tournament under the guidance of coach Bob McKillop. Curry will be available during the 2021 NBA season as the movie follows the Golden State Warriors’ quest for a second title after one of their worst seasons in team history.
With close-up cinematic film, archival material, and on-camera interviews, the documentary recounts Curry’s journey from an average college player to a four-time NBA champion. Curry is one of the most impactful, dynamic, and unpredictable players in basketball history.
In ‘Stephen Curry: Underrated’, Curry struggles to balance the pressures of his professional life with his promise to his mother, which he made when he left Davidson early to enter the NBA, that he would finish college.
In order to tell the remarkable tale of a young man who developed from a diminutive and unnoticeable high school basketball player to an NBA icon, Nicks skillfully interweaves the similarities he discovers between Curry in video footage from both his early years as an athlete and his later years as a professional basketball player.
The dates January 19 to January 29 are marked for the Sundance Film Festival 2023 edition. The Sundance Film Festival brings together audiences looking for fresh ideas and new voices with those who are passionate about telling creative stories.
