With the soul of a late tango, in this film the songs and the evocation of the world revolve around the music that dominated leisure in the early 20th century. Furthermore, it responds to one of the hallmarks of director Jaime Chávarri, best known for his series Las cosas del querer, with which this film directly dialogues. 


The counterpoint to the protagonist singer is developed by a young woman played by Aitana Sánchez-Gijón, whose gaze constructs and manipulates the limits of the survival of Argentine music par excellence and its myths. 

Synopsis: In Buenos Aires, in the 1930s, a Spanish emigrant meets a tango singer, considered the best imitator of Gardel. Juanita tries to make Renzo look more and more like his idol, until one day the tango singer is entrusted with a delicate mission: to imitate the real Gardel. [Source: Flixolé].
