THE LAST DANCE SALOON
Two people, no longer in the first flush of youth, meet at a tango retreat in Buenos Aires. A spark is ignited, passions smoulder, this was meant to be. Tied to their families in Chile and Devon, they navigate the frustrations of a long-distance relationship sustained by tango sessions in Argentina - that include unexpected flights of the imagination into the realm of local myth. Then one of them weighs the ecological consequences.
A multi story mix of music, song, tango and stories ancient and modern.
