Little Brother of War (2020)

The foundation of countless sports have their roots in Native American Stickball - a highly competitive, sometimes violent, always unifying ancient game known as the Little Brother of War. In the past the game was played between tribes as a last resort for settling conflicts before engaging in actual warfare; in the present we will follow a season of competition between two teams, both members of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, as they struggle for the cherished title of Champion and a way to keep the tradition of the game alive in the modern-day.
