A moving story of the troubled love affair between a man and a woman and between two countries

Reviewed by sfchapman 7 / 10

Satisfied... just above

I loved the animation style throughout and the use of digital technology complemented the "traditional" approach. The music was infectious and the first thing I did after the film ended was to buy the soundtrack.The story was touching, yet I felt it was lacking a little. The love story didn't see to have enough love (though I don't believe I have ever seen a sex scene in a cartoon before!). The relationship never really happened and therefore, I couldn't see why Rita would have waited a lifetime for Chico when all they did was argue and fall out.Saying this however, I did enjoy the film and would love to see a few more animations made in this way.
