Since you asked. My favorite tango movie will be 4Through Heaven and Hell4
by German director Matthias Tiefenbacher (https://imdb.com/name/nm0862824/)
and cinematographer Basso von M|ller (https://imdb.com/name/nm0902739/), the
movie itself is not listed at IMDB yet). A scene for this movie has been
shot last month at Confiterma Ideal with people imitating milonga in
background. I was one of the people dancing in the background.
Cheers, Oleh K.

PS A curiosity from BsAs. An odd thing happened today at Niqo Bien - a fist
fight among two adult looking hombres. Moral: appearances can be misleading.
By the way this was an _odd_ incident. Normally milongas in BsAs are very
peaceful and friendly, especially smaller ones on outskirts of Capital
Federal.

Subject: CINETANGO festival offer to Tango Instructors
www.cinetango.com
Dear friends,
The 1st International CINETANGO festival (www.cionetango.com) is fast
approaching (Toronto: Sep 16-18). Because of a lot of inquiries from
Tango instructors in US and Canada, we are making a special offer to
the Tango instructors in North America: If you register a group of five
or more students, we will offer two tickets (AT NO COST) to the
instructors organizing the group trip, as a sign of our appreciation
for your efforts in promoting CINETANGO.
CINETANGO is the only festival of its kind in the world. We hope to
make it one of the most successful festivals internationally. A
synopsis of the movies to be shown at CINETANGO this year is attached.
1st International CINETANGO Festival
Toronto: September 16-18, 2005
www.cinetango.com
Tango Salon (La Confiteria Ideal)
A documentary in Spanish with English subtitles by Jana Bokova _
Argentina & United Kingdom 2003 _ 69 min Tangueros and tangueras - old
milongueros, dancers, teachers, foreigners and stars from 20 to 80 -
share their stories of love, family, nationality and more. A
celebration of the tango's weaving of the political and the aesthetic.
Yo no sé qué me han hecho tus ojos/I Don't Know What Your Eyes Have
Done To Me
A documentary in Spanish with English subtitles by Lorena Muñoz &
Sergio Wolf _ Argentina 2003 _ 64 min Argentine singer and tango legend
Ada Falcón disappeared without a trace in 1942, at the height of her
career. Sixty years later, this unique documentary styled like a
classic thriller traces the life of the enigmatic performer.
Blue Tango in Buenos Aires
A documentary in German with English subtitles by Alexandra Prusa _
Switzerland 2004 _ 70 min Exploring heritage and tradition with modern
filmmaking techniques and a resolutely contemporary spirit, Blue Tango
in Buenos Aires offers enthusiasts and newcomers an intimate look at
the tango's unique symbiosis of passion and nostalgia.
Global Tango
A documentary by Marta Noemí Bautís _ Argentina 2004 _ 53 min A collage
of personal memories and performances tells the story of Argentineans
displaced by the country's latest economic crisis.
Tango Illusions
A documentary in Spanish with English subtitles by Joshua Dylan Mellars
_ USA/Agentina 2005 _ 23 min Three Argentine generations face difficult
times together: thousands march the avenues of Buenos Aires while
milongueros dance to forget.
Wandering the steamy dance halls and sweltering streets of Buenos
Aires, Tango Illusions explores the hearts, minds and souls of the
porteños through a dreamlike collage of tango, chaos and existentialism.
Black Flowers
A dramatic film by Bettina Broglia _ Argentina 2003 _ 30 min A dark,
brooding tale of a man coming to grips with childhood demons after a
chance encounter alerts him to the whereabouts of the old dancer
responsible for his mother's murder. Tense moments and much tango
culminate in a provocative confrontation.
Vertical Desire ~ Tango
A documentary by Christopher Valley Ban _ Canada _ 48 min A glimpse
into the world of Argentine Tango - as music, art, and philosophy -
through the dreams of Marina Palmer, a New Yorker who left behind her
life and career to become a professional dancer.
Tango Con Fusion
A documentary by Auriel _ USA 2005 _ 21 min It used to 'take two to
tango', but the women of Tango Con*Fusión defy tradition, bending the
dance's gendered customs by blurring the line between leader and
follower.
Dance the Gender
A documentary in German with English subtitles by Gabriele Sophia
Börges & Sonja Schultz _ Germany 1999 _ 77 min Until a short time ago,
the tango world appeared to be in perfect order: rapt, lascivious women
lay in the arms of strong machos. But these classical roles represent a
challenge to the curious, and suddenly some women only want to dance
with other women, while some men secretly teach each others how to be
led.
