"Grounders is an attempt to capture the elation and confusion of play. The film was shot by several children, friends of my daughter, at nearby Lifesaver's Park in Hamilton ON. I was interested in a playground game called 'Grounders,' particularly the vernacular and malleable quality of the rules. Dispute and debate is constant, but it never seems to devolve into a bad time." (Derek Jenkins)
