Passion and patriotism collide in this fact-based drama starring Andy Garcia as legendary Cuban trumpeter Arturo Sandoval. To play the music he loved, Sandoval knew he had to defect. But to be with the wife (Mia Maestro) he loved, he had to remain in Cuba. The dilemma nearly tore him apart -- until jazz great Dizzy Gillespie gave Sandoval a chance to fulfill his dream. Also with Mia Maestro, Gloria Estefan, David Paymer and Charles S. Dutton. Directed by Joseph Sargent; written by Timothy J. Sexton.
