38 At the Garden chronicles the extraordinary ascendance of point guard Jeremy Lin during his landmark 2012 season with the New York Knicks. Lin, an undrafted Harvard graduate, shocked fans, stunned his teammates, and galvanized Asian American communities when he scored 38 points at Madison Square Garden against the Los Angeles Lakers, solidifying his hot streak and the “Linsanity” craze. A decade later, Lin’s stature as a groundbreaking cultural icon stands in stark relief to the recent hate crimes against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Featuring interviews with teammates, celebrities such as Lisa Ling, Hasan Minaj, Ronnie Chieng, and Lin himself, 38 At the Garden recognizes a pivotal moment in time for Lin and celebrates a world phenomenon that was bigger than basketball. Join the film’s director and producers for a discussion after the film. Description courtesy of HBO. (Dir.: Frank Chi, United States, 2022, 38 min., DCP, English)
