Chico and Rita is an animated feature-length film directed by Fernando Trueba and Javier Mariscal.

With an original soundtrack by Cuban pianist, bandleader and composer Bebo Valdés, Chico & Rita captures a definitive moment in the evolution of jazz music. The film features music by Thelonious Monk, Cole Porter, Dizzy Gillespie and Freddy Cole (brother of Nat King Cole).
