What luck! You fell on a POETICAL ANIMATED FILM about DESIRE
Diffusion completed

Synopsis

The film is a painted story about the extraordinary nature of tango, which is not only erotic, full of desire or aggression, but mainly is full of sorrow. Tango is longing, it is „a sad thought that is danced“. It can reveal our most intimate stories, innermost longings and needs, our secrets. It triggers powerful emotions in film characters, great longing, grief and melancholy. They lose themselves in the dance trying to find some relief, going after something lost, unreachable and absent. They can never be satisfied though, always longing.
