Viva

Jesús, a hairdresser, works at a Havana nightclub for drag actors, and fantasies to be a celebrity himself. Founded by his mentor, Mama, Jesús finally has his opportunity to select the stage. However, if Angel, his estranged dad, suddenly re enters his own life, his world is soon turned ugly. The macho Angel, newly published from the 15-yr stint in prison, attempts to restate his son’s vision to do in haul. Father and child battle within their opposing preferences of one another, fighting to comprehend each other and get together again as a family group. Shot in a gritty neighbourhood much from the Havana many vacationers understand, Viva is just a heart rending story of music, survival and performance.
