Documentary chronicles the many ways in which the city of Miami helped transform little-known Olympic boxing into world-renowned, three-time heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali. Archival footage and interviews explore how the Fifth Street Gym along with the city's civil rights movement and vibrant African American community helped shape both the career and personal values of one of boxing's most outspoken figures.

Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color line in 1947, but it took another generation of Black and Latino players to make the sport truly open to all. Playing in remote minor-league towns, these were the men who, before they could live their big-league dreams, first had to beat Jim Crow.

In late 1958, Hollywood's most famous swashbuckler, Errol Flynn, found himself in the middle of a real-life adventure more improbable than the plot of any film he ever made: the Cuban revolution. It was a fitting climax to mid-20th century Cuba's obsession with American movies - a fixation that led Havana to boast of more movie theatres than New York City and Cubans to worship Gone with the Wind and Casablanca. Sixty years later, many of Havana's iconic movie houses are still standing, and the Cuban love affair with Classical Hollywood still haunts the collective imagination.
