'Handle With Care: The Legend of the Notic Streetball Crew' filmmakers talk basketball and community
Jul 04, 2024 Season 2 Episode 8
Vancouver International Film Festival

In this episode of the VIFF Podcast, documentary filmmakers Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux and Kirk Thomas along with legendary streetball player Joel Haywood talk with VIFF Director of Programming Curtis Woloschuk.

Handle With Care: The Legend of The Notic Streetball Crew chronicles the rise, fall and rebirth of The Notic, an upstart streetball collective. While their creative basketball moves brought them global fame as teenagers, it set them at odds with the status quo in a battle involving self-expression, race and rejection. Driven by a twenty year quest to finish their mixtape trilogy, the documentary charts how a group of friends from Vancouver, Canada played outside the confines of the NBA but left an imprint on the game forever.
