Mayerson JCC Jewish & Israeli Film Festival Closing Film - Heading Home: The Tale of Team Israel

Presented by Mayerson JCC at 20th Century Theater

2018 ∙ Documentary ∙ 86 minutes ∙ English ∙ Seth Kramer, Daniel A. Miller, & Jeremy Newberger

Follow the underdog journey of Israel’s national baseball team as they compete for the first time in the 2017 World Baseball Classic. Their line-up included several Jewish American Major League players, most with a tenuous relationship to Judaism, let alone having never set foot in Israel. Through their journey, the team discovers the pride of representing Israel on the world stage.

SPECIAL FEATURE: Post-film discussion with Heading Home cast members Jonathan Mayo, Senior Writer for MLB.com, and Jon Moscot, Israeli-American professional baseball pitcher in the Cincinnati Reds organization.

In partnership with The Reds Community Fund.
