Plot Summary: Oscar®-winning director Fernando Trueba and Spain's most famous and successful designer Javier Mariscal celebrate their passion for the music and culture of Cuba with an epic story of love, passion, and heartbreak.

Cuba, 1948. Chico is a young piano player with big dreams. Rita is a beautiful singer with an extraordinary voice. Music and desire unite them, but their journey - in the tradition of the Latin ballad, the bolero - brings heartache and torment, as they chase their dreams and each other from Havana to New York to Paris and Las Vegas.

With an original soundtrack by legendary Cuban pianist and five-time Grammy®-winning composer Bebo Valdés, "Chico & Rita" captures a defining moment in the evolution of jazz and history and features music (and animated cameos) by Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker,
Cole Porter, Dizzy Gillespie, Woody Herman, Tito Puente, and Chano Pozo.

you humans never happy with nothing....

Well, first of all, I'm gay so this film didn't arouse me at all. Second of all that sex scene was one part of the film and not the entire premise of it's being. I find it an interesting story, amazing music, beautiful animation and an art style that completed the 1940's Cuban aesthetic. Believe it or not, sex is a part of life and just because it is acknowledged doesn't mean that women's rights are being tossed aside. Please, just learn to respect a piece of art for what it is.

Maybe you're right :(

I'm torturing myself for the sins of others...

go live on another planet you have no place here

[tuschman168]

I was wondering: Is there any violence in this movie. It has no age restriction in Germany and yet the style of the movie makes me think that any conflict presented in this movie could partially be of a violent nature (If there actually is any conflict. The trailer shows none.)

[IWantMyVisionBack]

The perpetuation of perversion into children has already happened.. and has been going on for a long time.

Peace.

And i DON'T RESPECT freaks like you and those who DESECRATE FEMALE's INTIMACY, those who invert Chastity - into WHORESHNESS!

And this semi-animation (i bet it's ILLUMINATION), shows exactly what i'm talking about! All these disgusting neck-openings, all that HARLOTRY and action, those DIRTY, SEXUAL messages, ALL THIS AND A LOT MORE ---> ONE DAY WILL DESTROY MILLIONS OF CHILDREN's APPECEPTIONS!

All of them will LOOSE their INNOCENCE and PURITY ! ...it'll be substituted with this... PERVERSE !!!

[Moogitard]

I respect this with all my heart. The art and animation is abstract because it is creating the classical Cuban aesthetic with every aspect of the film, including music.

[mayte cuba]

good, hahahahah :P

[Lintu Bi]

and that again proves my point, alien

[mayte cuba]

fuck of then
