who could read the future of people . Born in Sao Paulo in 1964, Muylaert studied at
the School of Communications and Arts at University of Sao Paulo (USP) in the
early eighties , then became a film critic for Istoe (Brazil's equivalent of Time or
Newsweek) and 0 Estado de S. Paulo. In 1988, she joined the staff of Rede
Gazeta's program Mix TV, and several years later wrote for various children's TV
series, including "Mundo da Lua", and "Castelo Ra- Tim-Bum ", Her impressive list

Oscilloscope Laboratories picked up the U.S. rights to Muylaert's latest, The
Second Mother, on the heels of its Special Jury Award for Acting at Sundance Film
Festival, and Panorama Audience Award at Berlin Film Festival. The film
features Rio-born veteran actress, comedian, television host, and director Regina
Case in the role of Val, a live-in housekeeper who loyally serves her wealthy Sao
Paulo employers day in and day out while lovingly nannying their teenage son,
whom she's raised since toddlerhood. Val's estranged daughter Jessica (Camila
Mardila)-who came of age far removed , literally and figuratively, from her
mother's servitude mentality-suddenly appears to take college entrance exams,
and the unspoken class barriers that exist within the home are thrown into disarray.
Quoting C.L. on Sundance's site, "The immense satisfaction and fun of The
Second Mother stem from watching tacit social codes and delicate hierarchies
waver as a new generation blithely treads on sacrosanct boundaries."
A special event screening of The Second Motl1er will be held on Tuesday, April
21 at MOC's Tower Theater at 7:00 PM . TICKETS are currently available for
Miami Film Society members , and will go on sale for the general public on Monday,
April 6. See you at the movies! - Tatyana Chioccheffi

Education and industry leaders urite to launch Talent Del.eloprrent Netv.ork
Larry K. Williams, president and CEO ofThe Beacon COWlcil;
Matt Haggman, program director for The Knight FOW1dation and
co-chair of One Community One Goal; Mark B. Rosenberg, FIU
president and chair ofthe Academic Leaders COWlcil; Donna
Abood, managing director, Avison YOlll1g and chair ofThe Beacon
COWlcil; and Nelson Lazo, CEO of Doctors Hospital and co-chair
ofOne Community One Goal annOWlce launch ofthe Talent
Development Network.
Hoping to stop the "brain drain" that leads talented young people to leave South Florida, academic and business
leaders have united to create a regional internship program that will link university, college and high school
students with opportunities in high- growth industries.
FIU President Mark B. Rosenbergjoined leaders ofsix other educational institutions and the Beacon Counci1
Miami's economic development agency, to Wlveil the Talent Development Network (TDN), which will create
200 new paid internships over the next two years.
"This is about preserving and expanding Miami's intellectual capita~" Rosenberg said. "We've heard that
students are not prepared. It is our shared responsibility and our shared opportunity to move the needle on
student retention, graduation and job placement"
Research shows why internships - particularly paid internships - are so critical to student success.
More than 60 percent of paid interns received at least one job offer after graduation, while only 37 percent of
lll1paid interns got an offer. The median starting salary for new grads with paid internship experience is $51 ,930
-fur outdistancing their counterparts with an W1paid internship earning a median salary of$35,721 .
Beyond creating internships, TDN will also assist students at no charge with their resumes and interview skills, through an agreement with CareerSource South Florida. ''No one in the country is doing what we are doing here in Miami," said Larry Williams, president ofthe Beacon
COlll1cil. ''When companies expand , talent is the number one thing they look for. We need to be prepared to
meet those needs. "

Val (Regina Case) is a live-in housekeeper who takes her work seriously. She wears a crisp maid's uniform while serving perfect
canapes ; she serves her wealthy Sao Paulo employers day in and day out, while lovingly nannying their teenage son, whom she 's raised

from Cuba in 2004 w hen he, along w ith five other baseball players. boarded a boat f or the United
States. He has since become a U.S citizen and reached Triple-A with the Mariners . This will be his
fourth season with the York Revolution. (Chris Dunn - Daily Record/Sunday News )

Limonta jumped onto a crowded boat off the coast
of Pinar del Rio, Cuba.
Six baseball players from Havana had made the
decision to leave together.
They trusted each other. Close in age, they grew up
together in Havana, playing in the same league.
Yet they feared telling anyone, even family, about
their plans.
Limonta, the youngest of the six at age 19, felt torn .
His mother had clied a year before, so his older
brother would be alone with his father. So Limonta
made his older brother, Johanne, his lone
confidant. I t wasn't an easy conversation.
The older brother quizzed him : Why? Why would
he risk everything to leave Cuba, leave all his
family?

Martinez did not return to Yerk for the 2015 season. (Chris
Dunn - Daily Record/Sunday New s)
Limonta tried to explain.
He felt like he had "lost his way," he said.
Their mother, Cristina, clied at age 42, from cancer. He talked to her about evelything, like he
would a best friend, and now she was gone.
A decade later, Limonta can put into words what he felt before defecting.
"Right after my mom died, it was a wake-up call," Limonta said. "I looked in th e mirror. If there
was an opportunity to go to another country, I needed to go because 1 believed 1 could help my
family. 1 can play professional baseball, 1 can m ake money .... 1 could change my life in so many
different wa ys."

Already a member of Havana's Industriales - the most storied franchise in the Cuban National
Series - Limonta wanted more. Even the repercussions of defecting - which could result in being
thrown out of Cuban baseball, being passed over for any type of job or even being sentenced to
prison time if he was caught by authorities - did not deter him.
"This is what I'm going to do," Limonta recalled telling his brother. "I know this is going to be
hard. I don't know what is going to happen, but this is the only way I can change my life."
Limonta had made up his mind.
"He was not happy, but he understood."
Yet, on the boat, it no longer seemed black and
white.
"Right when I got in the boat, I was going, 'What
am I doing?'"
He was one of 36 people on the boat in the midst of
a storm, with children, adults, ballplayers crowded
together. One motor stalled in the 10- to 12-foot
swells. Down to their last motor, they waited out
the stonn, swaying in the surf for an entire day.
Evelyone on the boat got sick.
"Everybody threw up," Limonta said.
Worse still, if they began their journey and lost
power in the remaining motor, they knew no one
would be looking to save them .
"If the boat broke or something happens, you are
going to die, " Limonta said "That's just what is
going to happen - you're going to die."
Still, he carried on, driven by what he knew about
his home.

"Everybody works, but people want some more, they always want more," Limonta said. "If you
really want to get more, you have to fmd an illegal way to tly to make some money. Because
legally it is hard. It's really hard"
He wanted more from his life.
"I wanted it to be better in all kinds of ways," he said. "It's my chance."
A two-day trip in the boat ended when it landed in the Florida Keys.
The six ballplayers would eventually go their separate ways, with two moving to Puerto Rico. Only
two still remain in professional baseball: Limonta plays for the York Revolution, and Yunel
Escobar plays for the Washington Nationals.
"Once you jump in the boat, it feels like you're born again," Limonta said.
"Get in a boat with 36 people, and all of them get saved."
Yet it was just the start of a journey.

York (https:llwww.youtube.com/watch?v=wuycCvh2vHo)
The place shaped him.
Limonta, 31, grew up at 614 Gloria Street in the Jesus Maria neighborhood of Old Havana - the
downtown district of Cuba's capital. It's the section of the city where the French corsair, or pirate,
Jacques de Sores plundered and burned the city in 1555. The Spanish responded by building
fortresses and walls, the location of which still help defll1e the borders of Old Havana.
The city of Havana has 2.1 million residents, but along the city's natural harbor, the Jesus Maria
neighborhood in Old Havana has a small-city feel to it, Limonta said.
"It's like York," Limonta said. "Everyone knows everybody."
He grew up near a ballpark. A small one, he admits, but it was home. Close enough he could walk
to it in five minutes. He could meet his friends and play all day as a child. Baseball was different
from other spoltslike volleyball and handball. It clicked. He got everything 'about baseball, even
when he was little.
He played in high school. He played in college for two years. And then he jumped to the Cuban
National Series, which is still deemed amateur baseball because of Cuba's politics as a communist
nation. Still, it's the nation's big leagues. And he played for his nation's most popular team, the
Industriales.
"When you play for the Industriales, you're going to have a lot of eyes on you," LinlOnta said.

revolution- johan-lim onta -cuha -haseball!) Americans call the Industriales the Yankees of Cuba. The comparison doesn't really make sense for Cubans. "We don't talk too much about (major league) baseball," Limonta said. ''Yes, the Industriales are the best team in Cuba. Everyone wants to play against them ," Limonta said slapping his hand. "Evelybody wants to beat them," he said with a hand slap. "Everywhere they go, a lot of people want to see them." Still, the comparison seems odd for Cubans, some of whom are just now gaining access to the Internet. "I saw a couple MLB games in Cuba, but it's not like I had an idea how baseball works in the
United States," Limonta said. "I didn't even know how good players make that team. When 1 got
here, that's how I learned how (professional baseball in the United States) worked. Really, people
in Cuba, they talk about Yankees, Boston and they probably talk about the Dodgers now because
they have a Cuban," he said in reference to outfielder Yasiel Puig. "It depends where the Cuban
players are. 1 remember Orlando Hernandez, when he pitched for the Yankees. Everybody pays
attention to the teams because of the Cuban guys."
Even when players leave Cuba, there is still strong supJXlrt back home.
The countIy pays attention to their own. No one forgets where they came from.
Brenda Coultas and her husband served as a host family for players on the Seattle Mariners' High
A farm team, the High Desert Mavericks. The Coultas family had a full house in the summer of
2007, taking in four players.
On a rare off day for the team, Coultas drove the players to Disneyland. She spent most of the
drive talking to the player who had just arrived at her house, a 23-year-old Johan Limonta.
He smiled. He made eye contact. And Coultas chattered away.
But when they arrived at Disney, the other players fmally let her know the new player didn't speak
English.
"He didn't understand a word," she said, laughing about their first meeting.
And, yet, they would become so close. Limonta still visits, stopping by to visit Coultas and her
fam ily two or three times a year in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
Limonta arrived in California at a
difficult time. He couldn't
communicate with most of his
teammates and coaches. He would
get in trouble because he didn't
understand what coaches wanted.
"The fITst year was a really hard
year for me," Limonta said. "It got
confusing for me. Like, 'Did 1
make the right decision?' But 1
never said, 'I want to go back.' I
never thought that way. I'm here
now, 1 cannot go back."
Limonta found a way to sur.'ive.
His Venezuelan teammates in the
house could translate, and Coultas'
husband knew a little Spanish.

Limonta stayed two seasons with the family. His English improved, and Coultas and Limonta
developed a bond.
Coultas' routine had always been to drive players back to their house after games, and after one
particularly tough stretch, she found Limonta alone and near his breaking point,
"He basically started crying, 'I don't want to disappoint my family in Cuba, I don't want to
disapJXlint my teammates.'"
What she saw was a person striving to become better in spite of some overwhelming
circumstances,
"After that 1 call her 'Mom,' and she calls me, 'Son ,'" Limonta said of the 2006 season. "She's part
of my family. I love her a lot, like she's my mom. I'm glad God put her in my life because I
needed someone like her. ... When I didn't get help from anybody, she helped me in all kinds of
ways."
Overcoming the language barrier, they grew close by talking, Limonta said.
"J'm an honest guy, I'm going to tell you the truth ... I'm not the guy to go over the top or in the
news," Limonta said. "She loved me because she knows who I am. She knew the real Johan ."
Limonta now speaks fluent English, so much so that he sel"ed as a translator for fellow Cuban
Jorge Martinez last season. He became a United States citizen. He ftlled out the requi.red
paperwork and paid to arrange for his father, Luis, to join him in the United States - navigating a
two-year process. It's not uncommon for Luis to leave their home in Miami to stay with .1ohan
throughout the summer, like he did last season in York.
There have been great moments Limonta reached Triple-A with the
Mariners.
There's been disappointment
released by the Mariners in 2012,
he has made stops in the Mexican
League, Double-A and with the
York Revolution in the Atlantic
League.
Coultas has seen all this, and she's
been around other ballplayers. She
knows Limonta didn't have to do
this. He didn't need to find a way
to bring his father to the U.S., but
he did. It's more than just work
ethic. It's more than just trying to
be a better player.
"He's just an all-around respectful person," Coultas said.
Limonta is back in York again.
It's his fourth season with th e Revolution.
And he has his reasons.
"Oh, the people, the town, the stadium , the coaching staff, the players - everything," Limonta
said. "I know these people so many years, and I feel com fortable with them. They are like my
family. Everywhere I go, I feel welcomed."
Although quiet , he's one of the respected veterans.
"When there's some issue in the clubhouse he is one of the guys players go to talk to," Revs hitting
coach Enohel Polanco said.
Limonta is honest; he doesn't know how many more seasons he will be able to play. His career
might not end in the major leagues. Still, he knows he made the right choice.
"If you want to get something big, you have to fight for that," Limonta said. "You cannot sit down
and wait for it. You have to go and fight hard and see what happens."
And now, just as his career could be winding down, he sees hope that one day he might again see
his brother, whom he has not seen since 2004 . The relationship between Cuba and the U.S. has
improved in recent months, and travel - once forbidden - could be permitted.
"That's really good news, " Limonta said. "If I have a chance to go back (to visit), I'm going to go
back. It's going to be really great for me because I really want to see my town, I want to see my
family, I want to see my friends. I want to see the field where I first played baseball."
The trip no longer scares him.
''I'm going to be ready for that."

United States-Cuba relations
The latest: President Barack Obama will remove Cuba from the list of state sponsors of
tenorism, the White House announced 1\lesday. The official move could come 45 days after the
announcement was made.
What's that mean: It removes a large stumbling block in Obama's bid to normalize relations
between the two countries.
Loosened trade restrictions: The Obama administration announced in January it would
significantly loosen trade restrictions, allowing greater American travel. In the past, prospective
travelers have had to obtain a specialized license, a government document, to travel to Cuba, but
that requirement is expected to be eliminated.
Who can travel to Cuba: Americans can travel to Cuba for one of 12 purposes, including visits
to relatives, academic programs, professional research, spolis activities and journalistic activity.
Tourism travel remains banned, at least for now.
