Movie buffs and baseball fans can head over to the Palmerston Library in the Annex for a free screening of the acclaimed indie feature *Eephus*. Directed by Carson Lund, the film captures the final Sunday afternoon game of two recreational baseball teams playing on a beloved New England field before the local board razes the diamond for a new school.
What to Expect
As day transitions into night and the final innings stretch on, the film brilliantly blends bittersweet nostalgia with the quintessential camaraderie of middle-aged athletes who refuse to let go of their glory days. It's an insightful, funny, and deeply moving look at community spaces and the passing of eras.
Getting There
The Palmerston Library is located at 560 Palmerston Avenue, just a short walk south of Bloor Street West and the Bathurst subway station. The screening takes place in the lower level theatre and is completely free to attend on a drop-in basis. Drop by early to grab a good seat, and consider exploring the local Annex neighbourhood for a bite to eat or a drink after the credits roll.
