Released: 2012.
Director: Ross Finkel.
The plot: Miguel and Jean Carlos are two prospective Major League Baseball players, the latest in a long, long line from the Dominican Republic. This film follows them and the corruption which threatens to define their future.
What the critics said: “It’s an eye-opening look at a flawed, potentially exploitative system and how it is being gamed from all sides of the table — the story of the collision of youthful dreams and a cut-throat adult cartel.” – Kenneth Turan, LA Times.
