For Alan Gross, he was no stranger to travel. He’d worked in more than 50 countries in his career. But Cuba wouldn’t be like the other trips. In December 2009, he was arrested by Cuban authorities and accused of trying to set up illegal internet connections. Fourteen months later, Alan is found guilty and sentenced to 15 years in prison for crimes against the Cuban state. This is Alan’s story.

And be sure to watch Focus Features new film, STILLWATER, directed by Tom McCarthy and starring Matt Damon, in theaters July 30th.
