Beskrivelse af Last Tango in Buenos Aires
It is 1979 and sixteen year old Jennifer bunks off school each day and goes to dance class in London. No one knows that the final months of the ecstatic days of disco are quickly passing as Jennifer is plucked from the crowd to join the Hottest dance group ever created. She is part of a troupe who become celebrities before the term was invented and discovers a sensual freedom that will soon be cut off when a sex plague strikes the all-night party people of London. Two decades later, she is living in New York and although her body suffers after a life of dance, the passion for expression in movement pursues her. She takes up the tango and soon moves to Buenos Aires to immerse herself in the dance. But tango is a dance with a dance, the exterior passion conceals a deep melancholy and the etiquette reflects the dominance of the male in Latin America. She begins an affair with Dario, a young revolutionary who betrays her for his own ends and she becomes disillusioned with Buenos Aires and the self-interested expats who live there. Still eager for adventure and discovery, Jennifer travels around Argentina - the land at the bottom of the world, finding a variety of affairs in Patagonia, Iguazu, Carnival. When she eventually arrives in Salta, in the far-off foothills of the Andes, she meets Vicente and begins an affair that redefines everything she thought she knew about love. Last Tango in Buenos Aires is an exploration of the collision of love between foreign cultures as well as the difficulty in women's relationships when there are men to play for. Part love story, part travelogue. For everyone who loves passion with their travel adventure.
