Tangosalons Tango Argentino Amsterdam

before De Plantage

The tango salons have a beautiful wooden dance floor, good acoustics and are known for their typical Argentine tango in a relaxed atmosphere. The choice of music also plays a very important role.

Home-DJ is the very experienced DJ el Irresistible with more than a thousand performances since 1994. Guest DJs will be announced.

Arjan & Marianne welcome you.

DESCONCIERTO – Bewilderment 2021 Clara and Sandro are a normal couple like any other. They navigate the monotony of their routine, with shared desires and unresolved conflicts, and simply try to hold on to the love that unites them. They understand that choosing who to be with for a life project as a couple does not only depend on what is visible, what is felt… that love is even more powerful when you have to be there for the other. But what if an emotional trauma remains hidden? Their lives were stuck in a vicious circle from which they could not escape, until suddenly one of them turned out to suffer from a 'multiple personality disorder'. Now Clara and Sandro will have to learn to live with Loki (humor), Ruth (desire) and Rivas (violence) who stormed into their lives and changed them forever. What Clara and Sandro have to discover is until when love and addictions will be indispensable allies to understand that secret. You are witnessing a shocking drama, it confronts us with our fears and desires, a story between reality and fiction that makes us think and moves us. “Desconcierto tango” is a fusion that combines tango dance, theatre, audiovisual arts and a labyrinthine script that will captivate you! Do you dare to enter? Cast: Rubén & Sabrina Veliz | Paola Camacho | Jonathan Spitel | Juan Cupino There is no speaking in it. Rubén took his own life in November 2024. He was a great and creative dancer. Together with Sabrina, they were frequent guests at our De Plantage from 2006 to 2010, performing and giving workshops. We show this film as a tribute to him and the years with Sabrina.
