Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
Reggae may come from the Caribbean, and Dixieland Jazz may come from New Orleans, but the distinctive syncopations of the Tango definitely come from Argentina. This Argentine documentary explores the relatively recent history of this distinctive Latin American musical form, pioneered by Astor Piazzolla, using film clips and interviews with key figures.
