Tango Queerido
- Director: Liliana Furió
CGiii Comment
This is an inside view of the international tango queer movement. In the documentary we show another way of interpreting this wonderful argentine/urugayan dance which expanded around the whole world. It is somehow a paradox that this dance (whith its traditional and macho structures) has been convirted into a tool which the LGTTB Community could appropriate. By changing the preassigned gender roles, tango serves for communication, contention, and political battle. The Queer Tango Movement spread around the world, facing resistance in the most conservative parts of each society, above all in countries where homofobia is part of the governing philosophy.
