After tackling the story of a maverick teacher in HALF NELSON, film-making partners Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck go even further out on a limb with this new film about an ambitious young baseball player from the Dominican Republic (Algenis Perez Soto). But just as their first film was not your average high school drama, nor is SUGAR even close to being just another American sports movie. Instead, it's a nimble and insightful study of the persistence and reach of the American dream, which also happens to have some virtuoso ball play sequences.
"mightily impressive follow-up to last years Half Nelson... compassionate, intelligent and politically assured filmmaking of the highest order."
