Legacy 21

65min

Legacy 21 - Documentary

A documentary film on Roberto Clemente as told by others. Over 60 interviews from former and current baseball players, elected officials like President Bill Clinton and others on what, Roberto Clemente meant to them?

Roberto Clemente is no doubt one of the best players to have played the game of baseball. His example goes beyond that of a great player, it exemplifies the ultimate sacrifice that great humanitarian's give for their beliefs, his life to help others. His name is recognized and adorns hundreds of public and private institutions throughout this country, his homeland, Puerto Rico and throughout the world.  Thus we create RETIRE 21, a movement that will take the question of retiring Clemente's number to the community and ask everyone that believes that Roberto Clemente's #21 should be retired to sign a petition to that effect. RETIRE 21 is a movement of interested individuals and organizations that believe that “it's time” that Roberto Clemente's  #21 be retired from Major League Baseball. 

The film is an upbeat, informative, educational and motivational experience for all genders.

The film is a Latino Sports Production edited by, Byron Hunter, an award winning film producer and co-produced by Julio Pabón, Founder and President of Latino Sports Ventures, Inc.

The film has been premiered in the following cities;

New York City, Bridgeport, CT; Carlyle, PA; Albany, NY, Chicago, IL; Cleveland, OH; New Haven, CT,
