Tango zu Besuch from Irene Schueller on Vimeo.
https://vimeo.com/213944173Does tango make you happy or lonely? That is unclear. But it is clear that it is addictive. Singles find people who can hug them. Couples find a new crackle. Tango is a great spectacle when you can master it, the dancers are beautifully groomed...
The film: Five young dancers immerse themselves in the sensual and erotic world of tango night after night, far away from their native Argentina – in the Black Forest. All are single. Everyone is addicted to the passionate and melancholic dance. Everyone wants to meet, to merge in a couple, in beauty and elegance. Everyone longs to meet themselves in the embrace of strangers. The eroticism is staged, but the closeness is real./The eroticism is real, but the closeness is staged. This leads to misunderstandings and conflicts that the couple doesn't show to the outside world on the dance floor. How much is play, how much do the rigid gender roles hold the tango captive?
“Visiting Tango” shows the different needs and perspectives and how they affect the small scene. Ruben is happy about the clear distribution of roles, while Susanna is committed to more equality. Christian enjoys the fleeting contacts with women, but Helena is looking for real encounters. Joscha, on the other hand, doesn't want to know anything about interpersonal relationships. He would like to make tango his profession and earn money with it. Lovingly, with lots of music and fine humour, "Tango zu Visit" tells what is happening in the dance halls far away from Buenos Aires. A round milonga leads from the fresh desire to the wistful pain of parting in time lapse through the whole love drama.
After this unusual tango film, you know why five young people are lonely together in a highly aesthetic and touching way.
