Medora – Tue, Apr. 22, 2014

Medora, Indiana is a once-booming community beset by a crippled economy and a dwindling population. This documentary follows the town’s down-but-not-out varsity basketball team over a season, capturing the players’ stories on and off the court—as the team’s struggle to compete parallels the town’s fight for survival.
