A father-son story about love and tango, SALGAN & SALGAN is an intimate peek into the lives of two very private men: the legendary tango pianist Horacio Salgan (98) and the son he barely knows, Cesar, who is also a pianist but always in his father’s shadow. After an 18-year estrangement, the two are suddenly forced to live together in a one-bedroom apartment, at the crucial moment when Horacio resists retirement from the stage, and Cesar must find the courage to take his place.
