American Summer
“Some summers last forever.”
Synopsis
Now in his 60s, Mikey vividly journeys back to his childhood during one of the best summers of his life when he met the girl of his dreams, Kelly, scored a spot on the travel baseball team, worked his first job and began his growth out of boyhood — all in the sudden wake of his father missing overseas on a military mission.
