Influenced by Africa, Italy, Poland, Brazil, and Los Andes, Argentine music encompasses many styles and rhythms, including samba, samba alegre, vidala, chacarera, malambos, valsecitos, coplas, and folkloric.
The film's spectacular theatrical staging showcases those dances through excellent choreography.
In dance, the classic valet steps are infused with modern jazz and set within Argentinean folklore.
“Argentina” features some of the most popular folk singers, including Mercedes Sosa, El Chaqueño Palavecino, Soledad Pastorutti (“La Sole”), Liliana Herrero, Luis Salinas, Jaime Torres, Jairo, and the folk group Metabombo.
The dancers include Ballet Nuevo Arte Nativo de Koki and Pajarín Saavedra.
In the film, it is beautiful to see a younger generation pay a heartfelt tribute to Mercedes Sosa, one of the world’s most significant promoters of Argentine music, with one of her greatest hits, “Changes, Everything Changes/Cambia, todo Cambia.”
The legendary Spanish director Carlos Saura, known for “Cría Cuervos” (1976) and “Ay Carmela” (1990), among other magnificent films, delivers his fifth musical work: “Carmen,” “Flamenco,” “Tango,” “Fados,” and now “Argentina.”
Saura’s cinematic vision continues to explore the telluric connection between song and soul, music and movement, color and shape.
In “Argentina,” the accomplished Spanish director translates music, dance, and movement into a cinematic feast of color and energy.
“Argentina” is passion, “Argentina” es amor, "Argentina" es mucho corazón.
