for immigration interviews.
:40:05
They picked out who would stay,
:40:08
and who would go back.
:40:11
Who would enter the US,
:40:13
and who wouldn't.
:40:18
When they called, "Oscar del Valle"...
my feet, my knees, my head,

:40:25
something trembled.
:40:31
Your lottery departure number...
:40:35
...is 801.
:40:37
I have 307.
:40:40
Number 824.
:40:42
By my calculations, I'll leave
around the 18th of this month.

:40:50
I always knew we'd leave one day.
:40:57
9 months after
arriving at Guantanamo

:41:02
the first to leave were the sick.
:41:07
I got out due to my epilepsy.
:41:12
PROUD TO BE CUBAN RAFTERS
:41:13
That's how I left after 9 months.
:41:18
Now is when I really leave Cuba.
:41:33
When I flew...
from Guantanamo

:41:36
to Miami, where I had relatives waiting.
:41:44
They gave me a welcoming party.
:41:51
- Miriam, how's it going?
- Fine.

:41:55
Wonderful.
:41:59
To me, your face reminds me
a lot of your mother.
