What is Vivo about?
The film follows an adorable kinkajou named Vivo, who plays music to the public in a Havana square, alongside his owner Andreas.
Tragedy strikes when Andreas receives a letter from a former musical partner - meaning the pair head to a farewell concert in Miami.
It’s up to Vivo to sing a love song that brings the humans together, but it’s not without its challenges.
