For Love or Country: The Arturo Sandoval Story is a film about Arturo Sandoval starring Andy Garcia.
The biographical drama was produced for the HBO premium cable network and first aired on October 18, 2000. World-class trumpeter Arturo Sandoval was a shining light in Cuba's exciting jazz scene and championed by jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie as one of the greatest musicians he'd ever heard.
The seaside park scenes showing wrought-iron fences were shot in the Parque de Palomas (Pigeon Park) in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, while the black and white film the character of Dizzy shoots is actually footage of Havana, Cuba.
In the end credits, Arturo Sandoval himself is listed as having played one of the government functionaries.
