...called Mariel Boatlift, when Fidel Castro emptied his prisons of political prisoners, criminals, homosexuals and other undesirables and allowed them to go to Florida. Juan Raul Perez (Alfred Molina), a political prisoner, hasn't seen his wife Carmela in 20 years, ever since he sent her and their infant daughter to Miami. Memories of Carmela and his daughter kept him alive during his imprisonment, and he desperately looks forward to the reunion. Dorita Perez (Marisa Tomei), a young sugarcane worker, is obsessed with American popular culture, especially John Wayne and Elvis Presley, and has always dreamt of living...
