Movie: Tango on a Visit

  • HomePage

  • Overview

    Five young dancers are obsessed with tango, far from its homeland Argentina: in the Black Forest. Helena, Susanna, Christian, Joscha and Ruben are all single. Their all-consuming passion is a dance with rigid gender roles and hierarchical rules. How does this conflict with modern, everyday life? How are relationships and the longing for a partner affected by the tango life? "Tango on a Visit" unmasks the unique subculture and the emotional conflicts which are normally hidden behind the elegant spectacle of the erotic dance.
