Arena que la vida se llevó: tango novelado

On the night of his mother’s wake, the most grieving survivors are rancor and hypocrisy. After living away for over half a century, Javier Toro, the former Tomás Eduardo Príncipe attends the viewing and runs into the petty, shallow townspeople he left behind and never missed. In the space of five hours the saddened mourners come to pay their respects and construct an image of the deceased alien from reality. Meanwhile, Javier braids the present with the recollection of what his life has been far from the town, a journey to success, sorrow overcome and the unconditional love of his husband and adopted son, the family he has shaped through an emotional commitment instead of the duplicity and the toxicity of genealogical blood.
