"As a child she was limited by her handicaps, but as she grew into adulthood she broke free from their bonds through sheer determination." "The zoo was evacuated when the officials noticed the lions breaking free from captivity."

Hi! the infinitive is "to break free" and "breaking free" is the progressive form and means that you do somenting at the moment (or it can be a gerund)..so far for the grammar. literally it menas that you "want to escape" or that you "want to get free" from someone. if you give a whole sentence it will be easier to help you!
