    • Synopsis
    • A van and three elders in search of a shared secret.

      And tango. A lot of tango. Dance as background and motor of the three main characters.

      Carlos and Margarita were the most famous tango couple of their time. Today, very little remains of that splendor, of that passion that led them to share, stages, travel and life ...

      Carlos lives in Madrid, enjoying the second opportunity that life has given him and Margarita lives in Buenos Aires immersed in poverty and oblivion, but with that sly and witty sense of humor that she always had.

      Together with their inseparable friend Pichuquito, the couple starts a journey in search of answers, which will make them face their memories, their fears, but above all their true desires.

      In this crazy trip they will find themselves the past that they have so much evaded, but also with life in its purest form.
      False funerals, car chases, escapes, breathtaking landscapes, karaokes, robberies and an old van, assure us a trip of the most rugged.

      Three octogenarians willing to live an exciting adventure that will take them from Sevilla to Jujuy, passing through Buenos Aires, crossing landscapes and emotions, but never abandoning the humor, the most ruthless irony and the unbridled passion for dancing.
