What would you do if you discovered that a colleague of yours was cheating? And what if that colleague, in this case a fellow umpire, was your mentor who taught you everything you know by guiding you, advising you, even berating you when necessary. In short, caring for you. Do you expose the truth or do you shut your eyes?
UMPIRES is not your typical sports film. While it does present the game of baseball from the point of view of the men behind the mask, it is primarily about character, betrayal and ethics.
