Abrazos imborrables

 

Argentina, Documentary, 2017
93 min, Color
Spanish with English subtitles

The film shows the resurgence of tango in Argentina and its adoption around the world. After decades of being hidden from the public view, tango makes a surprise return, with a notably strong presence in Argentina and spreading to the four corners of the world. Contemporary tango legends, including those responsible for the comeback of tango, share their insights and first-hand accounts to explain why tango has returned with such strength to the world stage. This documentary, produced with the collaboration and support of the Buenos Aires tango scene, aims to answer the following questions: Why are cities from so many countries being filled with milongas? Why are youth returning to tango? Why is a cultural expression from the late 1800s returning with such strength in the year 2000? What basic needs is it fulfilling, and what does this say about our current global society?
