ABOUT THE LAST OUT

Three Cuban baseball players leave their families and risk exile to train in Central America and chase their dreams of playing in the United States. At the shadowy nexus of the migrant trail and pro sports, THE LAST OUT chronicles their difficult journey, from multi-step immigration obstacles and learning English to the broken promises and dubious motives of agents.

This event is free and open to all!
