Tango Libre (2012) by Frédéric Fonteyne


Tango libre (2012)
98 min - Drama - 7 November 2012 (Belgium)
 




In acest film joaca si Chicho Frumboli. Mi s-a parut genial schimbul de replici in care, Chicho Frumboli - considerat unul dintre cei ma buni dansatori de tango din zilele noastre, daca nu cel mai bun, la seminariile caruia am fost si noi la Bran, la Tango On Focus II, in 2010, care a aruncat in aer incaperea in care a facut show-ul de la Bran cu energia dansului sau - spune ca toti argentinienii danseaza tango, doar el nu!!!




Sergi López: You from Argentina?
Chicho: Yeah
Sergi López: I want to learn the tango
Chicho: I don't do tango
Sergi López: What? All Argentinians dance the tango, right?
Chicho: All except me

Genial, genial, genial!!! :)))

Vreau sa vad filmul asta!!! Ma bantuie deja imaginile din trailer! Chicho, cu toate tatuajele lui, cu fatza lui de pirat, cu inele in sprancene, intre puscariasi, desenand ronduri cu piciorul pe caldaramul din curtea inchisorii, vazut pe dupa gratii... :))
Bilete pentru Belgia pe 7 nov or mai fi?



Synopsis
JC is a prison guard. He is a man without a story, hiding behind rules. He only has one fantasy: Tango dancing. One night, in dance class, JC meets Alice. They dance together. The next day he sees her again in the prison visiting room, when she visits her husband in the prison where he works and he is drawn into her complicated romantic life. First visiting one man, then another...Alice is the wife of two inmates, Fernand and Dominic, whom she follows with her son from prison to prison.The prison rules prohibit the guards from socializing with inmates' family members.For the first time in his life, JC is about to break the rules. Meanwhile the prisoners are learning the tango.

29/08/2012 A prison, guards in the passageways, prisoners’ free time. Some play chess, others play cards. The atmosphere is both calm and heavy, ready to ignite at the slightest of sparks. Two brooding, frowning men spar. They look each other up and down, circle each other, defy each other. It all points to a brawl, to a settlement of accounts. Suddenly, they embrace and throw themselves into a dance that is both subtle and virile, masculine and gracious: a tango. We owe this beautiful cinematic idea to Frédéric Fonteyne.

Tango is a means of escape for these characters’ bodies and minds. JC (François Damiens, in a more introverted role than usual), a prison guard, lives squeezed in his tiny home, suffocated by its overwhelming wallpaper. His main rule is never to disobey a rule. His only folly is tango lessons, during which his stiff, clumsy body finds a little freedom. As for Fernand (Sergi López), he loves his wife. So much so that he is obsessively jealous. He cannot stand the idea that, because she loves tango, she needs the arms of another man. So he decides to learn tango, so what if he is in prison? Or rather great, because there is an Argentinian in the next door cell. Surely, he knows all about tango! Between JC and Fernand, there is Alice (Anne Paulicevich), the dancer, dancing partner to one and wife to the other. But then there is also Dominic (Jan Hamenecker), the friend, lover and cellmate, and the trio’s son (Zacharie Chasseriaud). There will be many obstacles in this balancing act, in which JC seeks not so much love but emotions and thrills…

Produced by Artémis, Samsa, Une liaison cinématographique, and Minds Meet, Tango Libre is sold by Films Distribution. It will be released in Franceon November 21, and in Belgium on November 7.
