Tangos, the Exile of Gardel (1985)

An eclectic group of Argentines exiled in Paris during the Argentine dictatorship come together to form a tango ensemble as a means of connecting with their homeland. The film follows their complex lives, marked by economic challenges, the loneliness of exile and the struggle to preserve their cultural identity in a foreign country. With surreal and musical elements, this masterpiece by Pino Solanas employs tango as a vital emotional thread in the struggle to preserve freedom and identity.
