"Paradise Under The Stars"
1999
Directed by Gerardo Chijona

Star-struck Sissy wants to sing at the Tropicana club, but her macho truck driver father forbids it. When he accidentally hits a biker on the road, he brings his victim home to recuperate. Sissy naturally falls hard for the hunk, but love--like stardom--does not come easy. Many more complications ensue in this "buoyantly entertaining" (Hollywood Reporter) Cuban comedy. Audience Award-winner at the Havana Film Festival. Spanish with English subtitles.  90 minutes.
