The setting is July 25,1953 in Cuba one day before Fidel Castro's assault on the Moncada Barracks, the country's second most important military base back then and in this movie everyone talk Spanish however there will be subtitles. Ramon is a 18 year old man and his father Jorge and hundreds of rebels are discussing plans on how to take control of Cuba and eliminate Castro. At 6 AM the next morning Fidel's ambush erupted and the rebels were rushed into battle although there was little gunfire the defense was outstanding and they won the battle however Ramon's father was KIA and Castro escaped. Years later Ramon is now in charge of the rebels he is now 21 and Castro is not done with his revenge. The year is 1956, and Castro is back and more stronger than ever he ambushed Ramon's farms and local population in the mountains of Sierra Maestra killing his wife and several other locals on Christmas day so 4 years later after the ambush Ramon gathered 6 Rebels he knew and got information on Castro's whereabouts west of the mountains from a mole so Ramon spent 3 three days heading for his compound and got into 6 gun fights and finally reached Castro's compound at 3AM on Christmas day he swore he would avenge the deaths of his loved ones his ambush was successful at the beginning but his men started to die one by one and soon while Ramon's men was out in the firefight; Ramon was sneaking around the back and soon discovered it was actually Raul Castro at the compound Fidel left before they even got there and it is Ramon's last stand he has a quick fist fight with Raul and held him hostage against 13 of Raul's men and after killing 5 of them a solider shot Ramon in the back severely wounding him instead of killing him they kept him prisoner until 3 days when Raul's men were about to execute him for not giving them information of the rebel's next moves shortly a rescue team came to save him turns out one of Ramon's men went MIA during one of the firefight while heading toward Castro's compound and got back up. Ramon was saved and was looking for Raul but he escaped soon after the movie ends with Ramon going to Havana being titled "Father of the Rebels" and the screen turns back with dates of time saying on "January 1,1961 the rebels took control of Cuba".
