Description
Witness a revolution through the eyes of one American teenager - inspired by true events.
In 1957, eighteen-year-old Chuck Ryan arrives at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay expecting sunshine, routine, and a chance to start over. Instead, he steps into a nation on the edge of explosion. Cuba -- volatile, fearful, and bracing for change -- pulls him far from the safety of the base and into the streets where unrest is tightening its grip.
As Chuck crosses paths with radical students, underground broadcasts, and the quiet brutality of Batista's regime, he witnesses a world where ordinary people risk everything to resist. When a single act of violence shatters his illusions, he must decide whether to look away -- or confront the truth at real personal cost.
Inspired by true events leading up to Fidel Castro's revolution, Americano blends historical fiction, political tension, and a raw coming-of-age journey set against the stark reality of the Cold War. Gritty, atmospheric, and deeply human, it reveals how one American teenager became a witness to history at the moment Cuba stood ready to ignite.
