SUMMARY:The Last Out
DESCRIPTION:Rated 100% on Rotten Tomatoes! \nCo-director Michael Gassert and subject Carlos Gonzalez will be in attendance for a post-film Q&A! \nAs a result of the U.S. embargo\, Cuban-national baseball players must establish residency elsewhere to have a shot at playing in the major leagues in the U.S. Happy\, Carlos\, and Baro are three Cuban-born players risking everything to achieve their dreams. A Cuban-American sports agent in Los Angeles supports the players\, paying for all of their training expenses\, in exchange for 20% of their signing bonuses if they make it onto a pro team. But a threat looms for the players. If it seems like the player will not make it to the big leagues\, they will find themselves cut loose and left alone with no way home in a strange country. The trials and tribulations of these three Cuban men’s journeys to get to the big leagues is beautifully presented in vivid\, intimate\, and frustrating detail in this Audience Award Winner for Best Film at the 2020 Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival. \nSPECIAL GUEST BIO: Carlos O. González \nFrom the small pueblo of Mayari in Holguin Province\, González was a formidable starting pitcher in the Serie Nacional for five years. Despite his relatively small stature for a pitcher (5’9”)\, Carlos dominated some of Cuba’s toughest hitters and pitched alongside New York Yankees’ fireballer Aroldis Chapman. In 2014\, Carlos was convinced to leave Cuba to sign with Cuban-American sports agent Gustavo Dominguez and his Top Ten Sports operation in Costa Rica. With little more than a promise from strangers\, Carlos took a chance on Gus and left for Costa Rica.
