The tango will change the life of a woman who works on a film for Hollywood. During her stay in Paris, where she is doing research, she attends a tango evening. Fascinated by this dance and enchanted by the music, she persuades Pablo, an Argentine dancer, into giving her tango lessons. A passionate love affair ensues and they seal it with a reciprocal promise : he will turn her into a real tango dancer, whereas she will turn him into a real movie star. Pablo keeps his promise and they enter the scene. But her plan to make a film with Pablo and the other dancers fails. This failure separates them irrevocably and pushes them to the limits of their personalities.
