Coach Pamz

Submitted by Bennett Johnson via DCN Platform

Director Bennett Johnson, along with the support of production company All:Expanded, has found yet another captivating story to tell. In “Coach Pamz”, which will be available on Bennett Johnson’s Vimeo channel on August 29, 2016, the director travelled with Cinematographer David Kruta to the Bronx and Spanish Harlem to document the turbulent yet triumphant life of street football legend Coach Pamz and his notorious team, Carver Mobb.

Shortlisted for the Young Director's Award at Cannes, “Coach Pamz” is a five­minute account of the life and struggles of Paul “Pamz” Rivera – a coach in the world of New York street football, a tough, inner­city sport that sprang out of the South Bronx and various other Latin and African­-American neighborhoods 40 years ago.
