Chijona injects some serious issues into this comedy from Cuba, which dazzles the senses with some fantastic choreographed routines from within the famous Club Tropicana in Havana. As Sissy becomes a dancer at Havana’s hippest club against her father’s wishes, great characters, multiple plotlines and a screen that is always full of colour make this a fun trip through Havana’s pulsing nightlife.
