THE GRIZZLIE TRUTH
To die-hard fans, like filmmaker Kat Jayme, the Vancouver Grizzlies abrupt move to Memphis in 2001 is much more than a sore spot, it’s an unsolved mystery and possibly a criminal conspiracy. What begins as a superfan’s investigation into her hometown team’s disappearance, becomes a love letter to the worst professional sports franchise in history.
