"World Beaters" tells the enchanting history of the Little League Baseball World Series tournament in which Maine-Endwell, an undefeated team from the southern tier of New York State, becomes the smallest community ever to win the Series. Directed by Jonathan Hock (Of Miracles and Men, The Best That Never Was) and produced by Thomas Tull (former Chairman and CEO of Legendary Entertainment, Pittsburgh Steelers minority owner and Endwell native), the documentary brings the pure love of baseball to life through appearances from current and former Little League and MLB players. Maine-Endwell didn't just win the 2016 Little League World Series. By beating the favored team from Seoul, South Korea (2-1) in the championship game, they completed a perfect season, ended Asia's string of four straight titles and put the "Little" back in an event that began in Williamsport in 1947 with regional teams and now attracts a worldwide audience of more than two million viewers. How did they do it? In the words of the Seoul Little League team coach, "They brought their dreams with them."
