The teamwork and friendship that can be felt among sports teams can run especially deep, and those feelings are bolstered and nurtured by the coach. Someone who not only calls the plays but is a mentor, a leader, and a guru. This week on CinemaJaw we take a look at the coach in movies. There have been many great examples.<\/p>\n<p>Who better to help us out than two time Peabody Award winner, and documentarian, <a href=\"http:\/\/mariafinitzo.com\/\">Maria Finitzo<\/a>? No one. Especially because her latest doc film is partially about this very subject. Maria\u00a0has been producing and directing documentary films for network television, public broadcasting, cable TV and the Internet for more than 25 years. Her body of work has been honored by every major broadcast award granted to documentary films. Ms. Finitzo\u2019s films demonstrate a depth and breadth of knowledge and expertise, tackling a wide variety of subjects including the controversial science of stem cell research, the command and control of nuclear weapons on an international level, and the complex psychology of adolescent girls.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1658\" src=\"http:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo.jpg\" alt=\"maria-finitzo\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/maria-finitzo-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>From 1995 to the present, Ms. Finitzo has been an associate of Chicago&#8217;s own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kartemquin.com\/\">Kartemquin<\/a> Films, an award-winning media arts organization with a 45-year history of producing social issue documentaries.
