US/2023/English/77 min/Documentary
In 2021, Israel’s baseball team competed in the Olympics for the first time. With no media allowed in Tokyo’s Olympic Village, the players record their own experiences, logging unexpected battles against anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. At once disturbing and inspiring, this story of Jewish pride makes an engaging follow-up to the crowd-pleasing 2018 hit “Heading Home: The Tale of Team Israel,” about Israel’s Cinderella run at the 2017 World Baseball Classic. Sadly, this underdog documentary could not be more relevant today. Directed by Seth Kramer, Daniel A. Miller, and Jeremy Newberger
Ryan Lavarnway, the major league catcher who played on both Israeli teams, appears in person with the screening.
As of today, 3/12/2020, The Dairy Arts Center remains open and operational. Should scheduling changes occur, ticket holders will be directly notified by The Dairy Arts Center.
