To warm you up for Havana’s Malpaso Dance Company, and Zenon’s performance of Coming Home, join us for this film about 13 year-old Mica who dreams of baseball while studying for his Bar Mitzvah.
Taking to heart his Rabbi's encouragement to “help heal the world,” Mica launches a grand plan to send baseballs to Cuba, the country that saved his grandfather’s life. On a hunch, his filmmaker parents pick up their camera, knowing that the U.S. embargo with Cuba will throw him a curveball.
