Kano (2014)

Kano (2014) Under Japanese rule, an underdog high school baseball team from southern Taiwan defeats the heretofore superior northern teams and wins a rare opportunity to represent the colony in the 1931 empire-wide tournament. Comprised of Taiwanese, Taiwanese aboriginals and Japanese players, “KanA’,” the Kagi Nourin School team, must integrate the ethnically mixed roster and make the best of its unique strengths to not just survive but thrive in the elite league. ??FuenpingAwards: 5 wins & 7 nominationsBudget: $9,000,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $11,890,062Soundtrack: Mr. Bird (Music by Suming Rupi)
