Team Marco
Synopsis (Short)
A tech-obsessed pre-teen and his old-school grandfather form an unlikely friendship when they ditch the electronics and take up bocce with a team of colorful local players.
Synopsis (Long)
Young Marco is obsessed with playing video games and hardly leaves the house. But when his grandfather moves in, Marco’s life is turned upside-down and he’s forced...to go play outside. Nonno introduces him to bocce — the world’s oldest game — and to the neighborhood crew of old-school seniors who play daily at the local court. With sport, laughter and love, Marco finds connection to other people “in real life” and rounds up a team of neighborhood kids to take on his grandfather and his pals.
