A delightful hand-drawn cartoon for grown-ups, Chico & Rita boasts gangsters, mojitos, sizzling Cuban jazz, and the most curvaceous animated pin-up since Jessica Rabbit.

At its heart is a sweet but fiery romance between a pianist and a chanteuse who meet in 1940s Havana. They belong together, both professionally and personally, but they're driven apart as they try to make it in New York, Hollywood and Paris.
