Streaming service Netflix announced Wednesday that a new documentary about Major League Baseball's Montreal Expos and their departure from their Canadian home will be coming to the platform.

The documentary is the first to be greenlit under a new creative partnership between Netflix and Montreal-based production company Attraction.

The currently untitled documentary is set to explore the setbacks that led to the departure of Canada's first MLB team and how it continues to spark debate 20 years later, according to Netflix.

The documentary will be directed by Jean-François Poisson and produced by Marie-Christine Pouliot and Richard Speer.
