Linsanity
“Linsanity” started filming in 2010, while Jeremy Lin was still a relatively unknown basketball player at Harvard University, and chronicles his ups and downs culminating in a record-breaking string of games in February 2012 creating the pop culture phenomenon known as “Linsanity”; where the world was watching one of the most remarkable underdog stories ever to unfold in the history of sports.
Stuck in the mire of a disappointing season, the New York Knicks looked to the end of the bench and gave backup point guard Jeremy Lin one last chance before cutting him. He took full advantage, scoring more points in his first five NBA starts than any other player in the modern era, and created a legitimate public frenzy in the process. Prior to this now-legendary run, Lin had faced adversity in his career at every turn, overcoming them each time, with the help of his friends, family and faith.
