Synopsis
Martina is a young editor that works for a television network. She is decided to make a documentary on the legendary Bar El Chino, a place where tango, friendship and love are highly valued.
On her first night at Bar El Chino, she meets Jorge, a single father who long time ago started making a documentary about Bar El Chino also, but had to leave it unfinished because of the lack of financial resources. With Jorge’s aide, she will discover this wonderful place, get the documentary in progress, learn to love, and know what emigration is like… from first-hand experience.
