The Game Changed. They Changed the Rules.
Based on an inspiring true story. Valerie Gibson was a top-tier legal shark told to wait her turn. Jimmy Gray was a pro pitcher told his stats were dead. When the system shut them out, they didn't just walk away—they started an insurgency. With a beat-up car and a maxed credit card, Val and Jimmy launched the first male-female sports agency in history. Their mission: find the "Misfits," the overlooked players with the "un-scoutable" heart that algorithms deleted. To take down the "old boys’ club," they’ll have to out-hustle the scouts, out-maneuver the lawyers, and prove that the human spirit can’t be reduced to a spreadsheet.

What is something that everybody enjoys but no one acknowledges? Progress.
Human Progress – The Bad, the Good, and the Factual is a documentary that challenges the view of human progress as an illusion of the modern age vis-à-vis the denouncements of technological improvements as detrimental for society.
With a pandemic, climate disasters, crackdowns on protesters by authoritarian regimes, ongoing wars, hunger, and basic human rights under threat around the world, it is hard to believe, especially when reading the daily news, that things are getting better. Bad news and political discourse driven by fear and disinformation, ask for a fresh look at human progress.
