Synopsis

Australian premiere

Written and directed by Laura González in her debut feature film, Milonga is a  compelling drama about the ghosts of the past and the possibilities of the future.

Living a quiet, suburban existence with her beloved dog, Rosa (Paulina García) remains tied down to the memory of her late husband and their troubled marriage, still abiding by his rules even though he passed six months ago.

Full of contradictions, Rosa is estranged from her only son Sergio and finds herself alone, distanced from her only family.

When a friend introduces her to the world of tango, she soon meets Juan, a divorced man who shares her passion for the dance, invigorating her life as she begins to rediscover herself. But before she can fully embrace change and live in the present, she is confronted with some uncomfortable truths.

A story about the courage needed to break free from the past, Milonga is a poignant tale of redemption and resilience.
