Love, passion, disappointment, pain and sadness shape this love triangle between Aniceto, Francisca and Lucía, played by dancers Hernán Piquín, Natalia Pelayo and Alejandra Baldón.
Acting
Piquín's physicality — he speaks entire monologues with his spine.
Cinematography
Favio's final film glows with autumnal Argentine light and shadow.
Score
Tango that crawls under your skin and stays for days.
Director
Leonardo Favio
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Favio was Argentina's most beloved director; this was his farewell after 40 years, and he cast actual tango dancers rather than actors.
The rooster is not symbolic decoration — it's a real co-star with its own tragic arc that mirrors the human triangle.
