A quaint little vibes movie about a small town coming together to play the all-American game.
3 different characters sounded exactly like John DiMaggio. It was weird.
The movie was cute. Check it out if you can.

The people face a new threat; with their government being useless and their new imperial overlords from the West off fighting…
