Synopsis

Like the expression, ‘Tango in Argentina is not simply a dance but a way of life,’Argentina is experiencing a renaissance in their most treasured music tradition, Tango. Café de Los Maestros is the Argentine version of the Buena Vista Social Club as it brings together legendary masters of Tango, composer, Leopoldo Federico and guitarist, Anibal Arias. Music director, Gustavo Santaollala, a two-time Academy award winner for the music of Brokeback Mountain and Babel and also the music director of Motorcycle Diaries and 21 Grams has developed and produced this film which draws us into a moving feast presented by these veteran musicians. Aged between 70 to 95, these masters of Tango lead us into the essence of Tango, sensitive and filled with sorrow. Never released works and rearranged Tango masterpieces reach a climax when these veteran musicians perform their music and dance at the famous Téatro Colon in Buenos Aires. (Chun Jin-su)
