      2024 1h 41m Biography Documentary History Sports List
      Reviews Roberto Clemente is one of baseball's most iconic figures. As the first high-profile Latino player to play in MLB in the United States, Roberto's extraordinary career opened the door for generations of Latino baseball players to come. It is, however, Roberto's remarkable life off the field that defined his legacy. Committed to uplifting society's marginalized and under-represented he fearlessly fought for social justice and racial equality with steadfast resolve. Proudly celebrating his Puerto Rican heritage he remained unwavering in his commitment to uphold his personal values and sense of self. His career and fame served as a platform to further amplify his life purpose dedicated to family, community, and giving back. The tragedy of his untimely death on a mission to deliver aid to the victims of the 1972 Nicaraguan earthquake shocked the world with the loss of "The Great One." This is the story of a man who showed that a life lived with passion and conviction can truly change the world. This is the story of an icon. Read More Read Less
