Boys of Summer

(Keith Aumont, 2009) Boys of Summer is a documentary about a scrappy band of Caribbean boys who dream of winning the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. With island beaches and the streets of Willemstad as a backdrop, you get to know the players: Slow-running Shen loves to show off his medals; Junters dreams of pitching in the majors; manager Vernon teaches life's lessons under the guise of baseball technique. Most of all, watch boys playing the sport they love on the island they love. Official selection of the New Orleans Film Festival 2010. 93min/Papiamentu ENG
