Julio Färber (Diego CREMONESI) is Argentinian of German descent and lives poorly in Buenos Aires with his German-born mother (Regina LAMM) and teenage daughter (Violeta NARVAY). Out of despair over the corruption, hyperinflation and overwhelming economic crisis (we are in the year 2001!) in the country, he wants to emigrate to Berlin, Germany with his mother and daughter. If only it were not for his long-time friends with whom the enthusiastic bandoneon player can live out his passionate love for tango music. And then there is this lovely taxi driver (Marina BELLATI) who does not stop at a red light...
Director German KRAL, who came to München (Munich) to study in 1991 at the age of 23, succeeds in creating an emotional declaration of love for Argentina, his birthplace Buenos Aires and the music of tango, without concealing the difficult living conditions of his protagonists.
A very successful film!
