Sugar

A compelling, bittersweet, realistic, and unpredictable film in which life throws curveballs for a sweet-loving, rookie Dominican Republic baseball player Miguel Santos, a.k.a. Sugar, (Algenis Perez Soto) after he leaves his family and girlfriend at nineteen to seek riches and opportunity in Phoenix, Az., where he attends spring training and then ends up living with an elderly host couple (Anne Whitney and Richard Bull) in Iowa when he becomes a pitcher on a minor league baseball team.
