“We're better together”
In this warm, intimate, and often disarmingly funny documentary, director Nic Balthazar follows actor-writer Rudy Morren, who surrounds himself with a close-knit group of friends after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. As he undergoes major brain surgery, his “Team” grows into a powerful network of solidarity and hope. For creator Nic Balthazar, the project is also personal: his father also lives with Parkinson's disease.

The story of a New York pro baseball team and two of its players. Henry Wiggen is the star pitcher and Bruce Pearson is the normal, everyday catcher who is far from the star player on the team and friend to all of his teammates. During the off-season, Bruce learns that he is terminally ill, and Henry, his only true friend, is determined to be the one person there for him during his last season with the club. Throughout the course of the season, Henry and his teammates attempt to deal with Bruce's impending illness, all the while attempting to make his last year a memorable one.
