Oscar-winning director Fernando Trueba (Belle Epoque) and the
acclaimed Spanish designer Javier Mariscal create a passionate,
animated Cuban love story.

Synopsis
Cuba, 1948. Chico is a young piano player with big dreams.
Rita is a beautiful singer with an extraordinary voice. Music and
romantic desire unites them, but their journey - in the tradition
of the Latin ballad, the bolero - brings heartache and torment.
From Havana to New York, Paris, Hollywood and Las Vegas,
two passionate individuals battle impossible odds to unite in
music and love.
