The film is described as a look into the inner world of José Julián Martí Pérez and the formation of his character as a fair man and not a biography, but rather a spiritual journey. The director explains, Jose Martí was a truly sensitive man who marked the history of Cuba. But he was also a normal human being, like any one of us. I think that is what makes great men/women great. My film will delve into the day-to-day complexity that helped form Martis character during his childhood and teenage years. The point of view will lean more towards the personal rather than the historical; more subjective than biographic. Each Cuban has [his/her] own Martí. In this film, I would like to express my own. * * * * $5 donation for* * ** International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5 * * www.thecuban5.org/* * * * In September 1998, five Cuban men were arrested in Miami by FBI agents.
