Town Ball is a documentary covering the creation and growth of a ficticious new audience-based sport called TownBall. Originally conceived as a marketing event promotion in which two teams try and push a giant ball across a downtown park, the new sport rapidly catches on and becomes a media frenzy, exploded by social networking. The documentary covers the sport from the viewpoint of the organizers, participants and TV commentators, in an ironic and humorous fashion. The hype and the marketing of TownBall make it into a cultural phenomenon. Soon, TownBall is bigger than the NFL, as millions of people join in and participate in TownBall matches between rival cities, neighborhoods and even countries.
But there is also a dark side to the sport. Violence soon pervades the sport, as gangs, hooligans and others begin to battle police and each other at every event. People begin to be injured and killed. The sport is in crisis. The public and authorities turn against the sport and try and shut it down. Townball becomes an official Olympic sport and there are professional players. The documentary lampoons professional sports (particularly soccer) and uses humour and irony when covering all participants: the players, the gangs, the fans, the marketing people, the cops, politicians and eveyone else caught up in the biggest, newest, craziest sport in history.
