“El Chino Bar”:

A unique experience.

The only place in the world where tango is sung as it was 60 years ago. In Buenos Aires, a big city with a present-day lifestyle, there is a neighborhood where time has come to a standstill: Pompeya, one of the places where tango was born. Here there is a bar, a unique bar: El Chino. A group of veteran artists has kept their friendship alive throughout the years. With their songs they express a particular way of seeing and enjoying life. Solidarity and loyalty are present in the magic environment of El Chino. This special feeling is transmitted by the artists through tango, and the audience can perceive it. The documentary shows the experience of those who visit El Chino bar, which has remained exactly the same since 1950. They share a night of happiness among artists who reflect the real spirit of tango, its essence, without commercial tricks, or marketing policies. The protagonists are people who have kept the habits, ways of life and artistic sensibilities of the 1950’s. In most cases they are remarkable artists, unknown to the general public. Each weekend the bar gets crowded with an enthusiastic middle-aged audience, as well as with young people who come and get the “essence” of the place. Unusual characters, foreign tourists looking for a typical “porteño” place, people who want to preserve old customs, all make of El Chino the meeting place where poetry reigns every night.

The film is a story about: Jorge (48) is shooting a documentary film trying to capture the essence of Bar El Chino, a bar/restaurant in Buenos Aires (Argentina) where amateur singers come to sing Tango. During the production he befriends the bar’s owner, El Chino, and the tango singers. Heartbroken when El Chino dies, Jorge decides to stop the shooting of his film returning to the production of uninspiring corporate videos.

Meanwhile, another filmmaker, Martina, decides to make a documentary on the Bar and its Tango singers, and finds out that Jorge has already shot El Chino before his death. Marina proposes Jorge to coproduce the documentary and he reluctantly accepts. Beto, Marinas casual lover, volunteers his equipment to produce the film. Jesus, Jorges friend, decides to invest in the film and Martina and Jorge start working together. Contented by the turn of events, its evident that the production of the film is bringing them together.

Then, the economic and political situation in Argentina becomes explosive. The government freezes peoples savings and Jorge cant withdraw the money that Jesus advanced. Jorge and Martina, frustrated by the turn of events, participate in demonstrations with thousands of people in the streets of Buenos Aires.

Jesus company, affected by the unstable economic and political upheaval, decides to close its business in Argentina, and Jesus is unable to further invest in the film. Jorge is in despair, but Martina has more bad news: Beto has found out about her relationship with him and decided to stop helping them with the documentary.

Jesus must return to Spain and offers Martina a job in his company. She accepts it. Without Martina, with the money caught in the bank and without the necessary equipment, Jorge is in dispair and quits the project, yet again.

When his son Nacho learns about his fathers situation he travels to Buenos Aires bringing good news: Jorge will become a grandfather. Jorge pulls himself together and with the emotional help of his son, he finally finishes the film.
