“a combination of things, all fascinating” – New York Times

Tango’s most famous couple, María Nieves Rego and Juan Carlos Copes, revolutionized and revitalized the once-waning dance in a relationship that spanned four decades both on and off the dance floor.

Now in their 80s and no longer on speaking terms, these two tango greats discuss their humble pasts, their tense personal relationship, and all that each gave up in the name of the dance. Executive-produced by Wim Wenders, Our Last Tango celebrates recent tango history and chronicles a legendary duo that embodied the drama, passion, rage, and sexuality that is tango’s essence.
