For Amaury Torres, life in Fidel Castro's communist Cuba is all he's ever known, yet he longs for a bigger and bolder life. Amaury is forced to navigate the unforgiving nature of his mostly-absentee, militaristic father-who fought alongside Fidel Castro himself, the chokehold Castro's Cuba has over his mother, and the growing suspicion that there might be an entire world outside of his reality that he can't quite reach. After a brief stint in the Cuban Army, Amaury is unfairly targeted by his government and is forced to flee to the United States to not only save his own life but to build a better one for himself. Based on true events, 90 Miles to Freedom is the story about one man's desire to discover his true passion and embrace a free life coupled with all of its ups and downs. Many immigrants chase the American Dream, but few ever truly achieve it. Is it possible that a young boy from the Cuban ghetto could really float 90 miles to safety and then somehow end up a world-class chef?
