[Introduction]
Helena's career as a tango singer looks set to take off, but she can't get over her sorrow by losing her loved man. The story is told by wistful tango tunes and sensitive images. A film selected for competition at Locarno.

[Synopsis]
Helena is a rising Tango talent who is deeply and madly in love. When she successfully auditions with her band at a prestigious theatre in Buenos Aires, her career looks set to take off. But she is hit by the tragedy: the man with whom she is in love will no longer love her back. For Helena, who lives and sings for love, this is the end of the road. Obsessed and tortured by her loss, she can’t get over her heartbreak and becomes a shadow of her former self. But what if she took off and started all over again? What if she just left behind the sorrow and stepped into new life in a new country? Perhaps she could also leave behind the pain, and slowly, learn to live and love again...
