The Big Cigar tells the extraordinary, hilarious, almost-too-good-to-be-true story of how Newton relied on his best friend, Bert Schneider, the Hollywood producer behind Easy Rider, to elude a nationwide manhunt and escape to Cuba while being pursued into exile by the FBI.
Black Panther founder Huey P. Newton escapes from the FBI to Cuba with the assistance of famed producer Bert Schneider in an impossibly elaborate plan that goes wrong every way it possibly can.
