TWO TO TANGO — a film by Dimitri Sterkens
with Elien Hanselaer, Patrice Meisserel and Peter De Graef
———
Twelve world leaders assemble in a war room to play a game on life and death in which they have to dance tango. Last man standing.
Two To Tango is a story about cooperation. How, especially in these turbulent times, we should be working together instead of fighting each other. Keeping our eyes on the bigger picture is however no easy task, as countries and political movements these days gradually shift (back) to extremes — a tendency that keeps repeating itself throughout history.
Some compare world politics with a circus... I prefer to see it as one big tango. A dance in which world leaders show their very best intentions to the outside world, but once the music stops, they continue their game of hard ball.
With these dynamics in mind, and inspired by the English idiom “It takes two to tango”, we wrote a powerful and moving script for which we casted twelve experienced tango dancers with diverse roots to star as our world leaders.
The film focuses on the emotional storyline of Lima, one of the world leaders, who tries to break out of the endless and absurd cycle of violence. Will she succeed to survive on her own? Or does she need to form an alliance with one of her competitors?
In any case, Two To Tango is an emotional rollercoaster. An extremely visual one, as there are no dialogues in the film. It’s tango. Shooting. Tango. Shooting.
