From IMDb: “In Havana, Raul dreams of escaping to Miami. Accused of assault, he appeals to Elio to help him reach the forbidden world 90 miles across the ocean. One night, full of hope, they face the biggest challenge of their lives.”

Poster: C

Review: The design really doesn’t say much outside of the context of the film/trailer, which won’t encourage anyone into the theater to see that.

Trailer: C

Review: In spite of the festival success listed off quickly at the beginning of the trailer, the pacing and content is lazily crafted and doesn’t make this feel like a significant or important picture.

Oscar Prospects:

Will it be submitted by its home country? If so, it could contend, but a lot depends on the other submissions from around the world.
