Jimmy Dolan is a college basketball coach who wants a big promotion. To get it, he needs to make a dramatic find. He ends up deep in Africa, hoping to recruit Saleh, a huge basketball prodigy Jimmy glimpsed in a home movie. But Saleh is the chief's son and has responsibilities at home, since the tribe's land is threatened by a mining company with its own hotshot basketball team.
Editor's Verdict
"The plot summary for 'The Air Up There' details a story focused on basketball recruitment in Africa, centering on cultural differences, tribal land disputes, and competitive sports. There is no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution are tied to the Christmas season."
