Through his work in the Omnes Films collective, cinematographer Carson Lund has spent the better part of a decade turning a critical eye to the rituals of small-town America, offering a refreshing, esoteric new vision for the possibilities of independent film. Now, in Eephus, his feature directorial debut, Lund finds a microcosm of the nation’s folksy charms and societal ills in its national pastime.  Eephus tracks the final game of a men’s rec league on a New England ball field set to be demolished the following day. As their day-game extends late into the night, the players go to increasingly ridiculous lengths to keep it going, sensing that once it ends they’ll be incapable of finding an excuse to spend time with each other again. Far from the skilled play and high-stakes drama of the typical sports picture, Eephus is the rare work to capture the sad, complicated allure of sport for the average unremarkable player. Matching its rhythm to the game’s crawling pace and brusque dugout banter, the film basks in the many ways baseball is at odds with modern living, examining it not so much as a contest, but a fading framework for connection. —Evan Bower
