3 Minutos

3 Minutos interweaves the experiences of four women of Buenos Aires who do not know each other and lead very different lives from one another. During the unfolding of their day they confront problems and disappointments of a very personal nature. But for each one the moment arrives when they must put the day aside and escape into another world, to put on their tango shoes and go to the milonga to dance, to fulfil a desire, a need, even if it’s only for the few minutes that a tango lasts.

Tango Elemento - Claudio González y Melina Brufman

Earth, water, fire, air. And a fifth element that encompasses them all and sets them in motion. The fifth element can only be sensed, it is hidden in the mystery of the blood. The fifth element is passion, the vital impulse, the positive pole in permanent connection with the negative pole. Man and woman: tango. Five elements constitute the world. They converge like rivers in the hearts of mankind.

Choreography, General Direction and Dancers: Melina Brufman and Claudio González
Guest singer: Andrea Panone
