Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and people who love a true story told well. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 37 min.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

This fascinating reality program exposes the ups and downs of a group of Cirque du Soleil performers as they put together "Zumanity," a new, highly erotic show in Las Vegas. Filmed over two years, Lovesick follows the diverse group of artists -- coy Cuban stripper Alex, feisty New York drag queen Joey, stylish British dancer Laetitia and debutante princess Jonel -- along with Creation Director Andrew and Spymonkey, the outrageous clown quartet.
