Désir d'abrazo

Abrazo desire

Françoise Lerusse, Maurice Amaraggi, 16 mm, Format diffusion : 1.5 (35 mm), 53

Every year, thousands of women cross the oceans to go dancing tango in Buenos Aires. Aged 50 to 70, they undergo the merciless selection of the Argentine dancers there. What do they search and what do they find in this adventure? Maurice Amaraggi and Françoise Lerusse followed them for two months and shared their feelings, their enjoyments and also their disappointments. They outlined especially the pleasure of spending long nights in the milongas and the encounter with a different culture, warmer and closer. " Désir d’abrazo " is also a portrait of our European and North American societies.
