Officially LicensedMade by Team MarketingIn 2004, Heisman Trophy winner and professional football running back Ricky Williams traded adulation and a mansion in South Florida for anonymity and a $7 a night tent in Australia. Failing two drug tests and rumored to have failed a third, his decision to retire created a media frenzy that dismantled his reputation. But while most in the media thought Williams was ruining his life by leaving football, Ricky thought he was saving it. With interviews from family, friends, teammates and former coaches, filmmaker Sean Pamphilon takes a revealing look at one of football’s most fascinating athletes and his five-year hiatus from the game –and how his journey ultimately led to redemption as father, husband and teammate. Bonus features include Williams’ 2005 press conference announcing his return to football and extended interviews.
