Meet the Haudenosaunee U21 lacrosse team as they compete at the 2022 World Lacrosse Men’s U21 Championship. For the Haudenosaunee, lacrosse is more than just a game, it’s a sacred tradition. Struggling to balance their personal dreams and the desire to represent the Haudenosaunee nation on the world stage, will they be able to pull together in time? The Nationals is a compelling film about two young men, Efrain and Clay, and the pressure and privilege of playing for a People.
