Pride

Based on true events Pride is the inspiring story of Jim Ellis, a charismatic school teacher who changed lives forever when he founded an African-American swimming team in one of Philadelphia's roughest neighbourhoods.

As racism, violence and an unsympathetic city official threaten to tear the team apart, Ellis must convince his team that victory, both in and out of the pool, is within their reach. Pride is a triumphant story about team spirit and courage in the face of overwhelming odds.
