There are plenty of big movies rubbing elbows at the Telluride Film Festival this weekend, but organizers have also made space for two Netflix Original short documentaries: “Heroin(e)” from director Elaine McMillion Sheldon, and “Long Shot” by Jacob LaMendola. And the latter is already earning plenty of buzz because of its crazy twist.
We won’t give it away here, but here’s the basic info you need to know. The story follows Juan Catalan, an innocent man arrested for a murder he didn’t commit. To save his life, all he had to do was prove he was one of 56,000 people at a Dodgers Game that night. It leads his dedicated attorney on a wild chase to confirm his alibi among thousands of people in a baseball stadium, and that’s where things get truly fascinating. All we can say is: just watch this trailer.
