Synopsis:
From IMDb: “When everything is for sale, what’s the value of love? Jesus does make up for a troupe of drag performers in Havana, but dreams of being a performer. When he finally gets his chance to be on stage, a stranger emerges from the crowd and punches him in the face. The stranger is his father Angel, a former boxer, who has been absent from his life for 15 years. As father and son clash over their opposing expectations of each other, Viva becomes a love story as the men struggle to understand one another and become a family again.”

Review: A boring, split design that has little excitement and no real sense of purpose. It does decent work for those familiar with the film, but for those not, it’s forgettable.
Trailer Rating: B+

Review: It’s all about the performance and that central musical presentation is peppered liberally with compelling situations and suggestions of political and emotional cohesiveness.
Oscar Prospects:
It was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film last year, so it isn’t eligible to receive nominations in other categories this year.
Trailer #1
