    [FONT=&quot]This award winning documentary follows the stories of three young hopefuls through 8 dramatic months of training and education as they prepare for the biggest event of their lives so far: Cuba’s National Boxing Championship for Under-12s. But during the season, crisis strikes: Fidel Castro is taken ill and all of Cuba’s Olympic boxing champions defect to the USA. As the championship draws closer, the Cuba that the boys have been taught to believe in is at an historic crossroads.

    [FONT=&quot]As well as providing a unique insight into life in Cuba, this film really shows the training regime that these boys undertake in order to fulfill their dreams of fighting for Cuba, and explains just why Cuba is so successful in the world of boxing. In fact, Frank Maloney described the film as “a unique opportunity for people to understand why Cuba produces such great amateur fighters…it makes great viewing…”, and John G. Avildsen, director of ROCKY said "Tears and cheers will fill your heart as these kids box for a better life. A knock out![/FONT][FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]

    why do you say "afro cubans" instead of just "cubans"

    are afro cubans different from other cubans?
