Summary

Film scholar Rielle Navitski applies her discipline’s lens to tango and Argentine culture. She provides an overview of tango’s intersections with film; analyzes how tango’s affective qualities and transnational wanderings have shaped a long and productive pas de deux with the cinema; shows the influence of each in a historical context; and raises broader questions of cultural exchange and hegemony.
