Short Stop
Boys of Summer
2020 - The third film in the
award-winning documentary series
Boys of Summer: Short Stop (2020) follows Robert and Dan Cochrane as their community reach expands and the disease closes in. Dan’s Parkinson’s has advanced since his 2001 diagnosis. He struggles at times with losing pieces of himself and accepting support. Robert brings his son, Giuseppe, into the adventure as they get MVP treatment at Dodger Stadium, Petco Park and the Oakland Coliseum. They meet Hall of Famer and fellow Parkinsonian, Dave Parker, visit Rock Steady Boxing Headquarters, and get an inside look at the legendary The Second City Theatre amongst their travels.
The film explores what happens between the big moments, capturing quiet struggles, inside jokes, the value of improvisation and the unspoken weight of time passing. Short Stop is an active meditation on love, limits, and what it means to keep showing up.
