Recruited by the University of Tennessee’s Lady Vols from the rough courts of New York City, Chamique Holdsclaw was hailed as the female Michael Jordan, impressing crowds with her athleticism and drive. A 3-time NCAA champ and number one draft pick in the WNBA, Holdsclaw seemed destined for big things, until her long-suppressed struggle with mental illness erupted to derail her career and threaten her life.
MIND/GAME intimately chronicles Holdsclaw’s athletic accomplishments, personal setbacks and decision to become an outspoken mental health advocate, despite public stigma. With continued challenges to her own recovery, the film tells a powerful story of courage, struggle and redemption.
