Wait 'til This Year is a reality-type docu-drama film which follows a Boston Red Sox fan during the 2004 baseball season, when the team ended their famous losing streak by winning the World Series.[1] The film was aired on New England Sports Network (NESN) and then released on DVD afterward.[1][2] Monika Lahiri starred (as the "character" Monika) and produced the film, which combines reality, documentary and scripted scenes when following the events from the perspective of Monika.[1]

In the film Monika and her husband Jes (played by Ges Selmont) are diehard Sox fans.[1] Friends Rob and Alex, have a conflict, because one is a Yankees fan, and one a Sox fan.[1]

Cast

[edit]

The "cast" includes those playing scripted fictional roles, while also including persons who appear as themselves, such former Red Sox star players, who made cameo appearances as themselves.
