In the heart of Buenos Aires, at the Palermo hippodrome, time seems to stand still. The tangos that Carlos Gardel dedicated to his love of betting still echo in the Grandstand. “For my first film, I wanted to revisit the Palermo hippodrome. The past and present, forever mingled together. When the betting men I filmed are no longer there, is will mean that everything has changed for good. Only the tangos will remain.” (Andrés Jarach)
