Vivo: the plot of the exciting animated adventure

Vivo sees as its protagonist an original cercoletto (a small inhabitant of the tropical forests), who spends his days playing music in a lively square in Havana together with his beloved owner Andrés. Although they do not speak the same language, Vivo and Andrés are a perfect duo thanks to the passion for music that unites them. But a tragedy strikes them shortly after the arrival of an invitation from the famous Marta Sandoval to attend her farewell concert to be held in Miami, hoping to see her old partner again. It will be up to Vivo to deliver the message that Andrés has always kept secret: a love letter to Marta, written long ago in the form of a song. To be able to reach Miami, Vivo will have to accept the help of Gabi, an energetic girl with a rhythm of her own.

Vivo is an exciting story about how to show courage, about the ability to find a family in unlikely friends and how music can open your mind to new worlds.

The original cast consists of Lin-Manuel Miranda (Vivo), Zoe Saldaña (Rosa), Juan de Marcos (Andrés), Brian Tyree Henry (Dancarino), Michael Rooker (Lutador), Nicole Byer (Valentina), Gloria Estefan (Marta ) and, for the first time on screens, Ynairaly Simo (Gabi).

The film is directed by Oscar nominee Kirk DeMicco (The Croods), co-directed by Brandon Jeffords (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 – Revenge of the Leftovers), scripted by Quiara Alegria Hudes (In the Heights) and produced by Lisa Stewart (Monsters vs. Aliens), Michelle Wong (Hotel Transylvania 2) and Oscar-winning Rich Moore (Zootropolis), with visual advice from Oscar-winning director Roger Deakins (Blade Runner 2049). Tony and Grammy award winning Alex Lacamoire (The Greatest Showman) serves as composer and music executive producer, while executive producing is Lin-Manuel Miranda, Golden Globe Award winner Laurence Mark (Dreamgirls) and Louis Koo Tin Lok (I Mitchell against machines).
