Short synopsis:
In the 25 years of its existence, ŠKL became a real movement, an essential addition to the Slovenian school system. It was probably the largest school project with many participants, gaining lifelong knowledge. ŠKL was brought to us following an American model of a school sports competition, based on spectacularity.
“Over the years, the camera recorded many things. In the archive, there is not a single thing that was not shot. We experienced a lot of stories first-hand, like the journey of Beno Udrih and Rašo Nesterović from their humble beginnings to the NBA title with the San Antonio Spurs. Many other players from ŠKL made it overseas – Boštjan Nachbar, Primož Brezec, Goran Dragić and Jusuf Nurkić. In front of our eyes, our famous basketball players and their children grew up. Highly valued are the clips of Luka Dončić as a child, that already show his basketball affection.”
