Film Synopsis
Sugar: The latest film from the team behind the prize-winning Half Nelson, Sugar follows Miguel Sugar Santos, a Dominican baseball player struggling to make it to the big leagues and pull his family out of poverty. He gets his break at age 19, when he is recruited to the U.S. minor leagues and travels from his tight-knit community to a small town in Iowa. Miguel struggles with the new language and culture despite the welcoming efforts of his host family. When his play on the mound falters, he begins examining more closely the world around him and his place within it, and ultimately questions the single-mindedness of his life's ambition. | Read More >
