Description:
Buenos Aires. Mario Suárez, a middle-aged theatre director, is left holed up in his apartment, licking his wounds when his girlfriend Laura leaves him. Seeking distraction, he throws himself into his next project, a musical about the tango.He does so and is immediately captivated by her. Eventually, he takes her out of the chorus and gives her a leading role. An affair develops between them, but the possessive Angelo has her followed all the time.The investors are unhappy with some of Mario dance sequences. They do not like a routine which criticises the violent military repression and torture of the past. Angelo has been given to a small part, which he takes very seriously. The lines between fact and fiction begin to blur: during a scene in the musical showing immigrants newly arrived in Argentina, two men fight over Elena. She is stabbed. Only slowly do we realise that her death is not for real.
