| Summary |
Recounting the high-profile doping scandal that rocked Major League Baseball, SCREWBALL takes us into the surreal Miami underworld that provided performance-enhancing drugs to Alex Rodriguez, Manny Ramirez and other star players. Steroid peddler Anthony Bosch's medical credentials may be lacking, his storytelling skills are first rate as he hilariously details the rise and fall of his “health clinic”, including mob connections, financial chicanery, his cocaine habit, and Rodriguez's eccentric behavior. Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. Winner of the Audience Award for Best Feature film at the **Miami Film Festival**. “*More entertaining than a dozen Major League Baseball games stacked on top of one another.*” - Barry Hertz, ***Globe and Mail*** |
