The Last Out
Three Cuban baseball players leave their families and risk exile to train in Central America and chase their dreams of playing in the United States. At the shadowy nexus of the migrant trail and pro sports, The Last Out chronicles their difficult journey, from multi-step immigration obstacles and learning English to the broken promises and dubious motives of agents.

Watch the broadcast premiere of The Last Out on the award-winning television series POV on October 3rd at 10:00 p.m. ET (check local listings) on PBS, pbs.org, and the PBS Video app.

The Last Out is Certified Fresh™ (100%) on Rotten Tomatoes.
"Minnie Miñoso and Tony Oliva finally got their due this summer when they were inducted into the HoF. Let’s make sure this signals a shift where Cubans’ contributions to baseball can't be ignored. Ending the illicit market for their talents would be an excellent next step."

Read more from Sami Khan and Michael Gassert's Miami Herald Op-Ed where they discuss the incredible eight year journey to make The Last Out.

“Our film has a special resonance with Cubans and other migrants who have first-hand experience with the journeys our film chronicles. At a time when immigrants are under constant attack by powerful institutions, we feel an important duty to champion their stories.”
