City Without Baseball (无野之城) is a 2008 Hong Kong movie drama directed by South African filmmaker Lawrence Ah Mon about a city where baseball is almost unknown, and plays to empty stadia. The actual members of the Hong Kong National Baseball Team appear in the film as themselves, in a story set in 2004. Their isolated existence leads them to take unconventional choices in both love and friendship, and to summon great courage in the face of their lonely and disconnected existence.

- City Without Baseball (无野之城) is a 2008 Hong Kong movie drama directed by South African filmmaker Lawrence Ah Mon about a city where baseball is almost unknown, and plays to empty stadia. The actual members of the Hong Kong National Baseball Team appear in the film as themselves, in a story set in 2004. Their isolated existence leads them to take unconventional choices in both love and friendship, and to summon great courage in the face of their lonely and disconnected existence. The film attracted considerable attention in the Hong Kong media, as the members of the Hong Kong National Baseball Team, who are all young Chinese men in their early to late twenties, acted to a high standard, and also agreed to appear frontally completely naked (their pubic hair, penises and testicles fully exposed), in several scenes. This was one of the first instances of Chinese adult males willingly showing their genitals on screen. There had been a taboo/fear based on the myth of the small Chinese penis. The baseball players in this film showed their braveness by exposing their flaccid penises to the world.
