Yuli

Father Pedro calls Carlos Acosta Yuli because he thinks he is the son of Ogun, an African god who fights. Yuli is also a nickname Pedro gave Carlos. As a child, Yuli doesn't follow rules or go to school. Instead, she learns on the streets of an impoverished and abandoned Havana. That's not what he wants. His father has other ideas, so he sends him to the National Ballet School of Cuba. Despite his many escapes and poor behavior, the boy is drawn to the world of dance and starts to shape his legendary career from a young age, becoming the first black dancer to be cast in some of the most prestigious ballet roles, which were written for white dancers. Companies like the Houston Ballet and the Royal Ballet in London cast him in these roles.
