THE LOST DREAM TEAM is a story of the last Yugoslav basketball team and their quest for gold medal in the face of political turmoil and the ensuing period of war. It is a psychological study of the players, the trials of their comradeship, and the remarkable experience of being a part of a unique team in sports history, the only team that won the gold medal, stood at the podium and watched the raising of the flag – all for the glory of a country that ceased to exist three days before.
