Tango di luna
Luciana Savignano's Tango was created somewhere in the world, on a moonlit night. A great artist encounters the tango and the tango encounters her life and her thoughts. Under the neon lights of an abandoned milonga a waiter is going through his daily work dancing the tango, as if the club were still crowded; a man sitting on the floor is cleaning his tango dancing shoes; looking feline, with her face like an ancient idol, Luciana walks in: «Is it here that they teach the tango?». This first encounter is already an embrace. An embrace between a woman who continuously renews her challenge with the freshness of a child and a man who instead has already established guidelines for his life. They discover each other, challenge, love and reveal one another. The tango too is transformed in the moonlight, intertwining with other dances. High on her heels and relaxed in Alejandro's arms, a real tanguero who knows well the steps and the soul of the tango born in the arrabal porteño, Luciana herself becomes the “sad thought that is danced” ( J. Borges ) summarising an entire lifetime.
