Brooklyn Stories
Directed by Jos de PutterIntersecting inadvertently with Brooklyn's early-21st century battle for a new sports team, BROOKLYN STORIES looks back on the borough's last, the immortal Brooklyn Dodgers. A musician, a dock worker, a homeless man: this assortment of yarn-spinning old-timers traipse around modern Brooklyn while recounting their favorite Dodgers tales, whether of Jackie Robinson or a hard-throwing pitcher, a last-minute loss or a different, more heartbreaking last-minute loss. BROOKLYN STORIES may have sport as its subject but its true subject is the art (and sport) of storytelling. - Jason Sanders
