Tam Tam – Outside the Lines awarded a Vimeo Staff Pick

January 7th, 2019

We’re really pleased to start 2019 off with a Staff Pick for Greg Hackett’s latest passion project, Tam Tam – Outside the Lines. The film captures the story of an Italian boys basketball team, who were refused access to regional leagues because of the Italian born players’ immigration status. This is due to the fact that the right to citizenship at birth, ‘ius soli’, is still unapproved in Italy, denying over a million children, born of immigrant parents, automatic citizenship.

The film has been well received since it’s release at the end of last year, and has also been featured on i-D / Directors Library / Directors Notes / Somewhere / Booooooom TV / Film Shortage among others. Many thanks to everyone involved!
