The citizens of the once princely Indian state of Manipur defy the local trends of gun violence, drug trafficking, and high infection rates of HIV/AIDS through a surprising passion for America's national pastime. For decades, baseball has given them a release from daily struggles and an antidote for a wounded society. With gifted women and girls among the best players, as well as leaders of peace and justice initiatives, this Manipuri story brings us to the heart of the Great American Game. THE ONLY REAL GAME explores the power of baseball for people in a remote and troubled place.
