Tango

This series is an amazing treat and an artistic gem. A deep dive into the psychology of relationships and the human condition, it takes an in depth look at marriage and why people are unfaithful. The drama is heightened as the cheating takes place within a group of four friends. The characters are raw, vulnerable and flawed. The performances are authentic and emotionally intense. I found myself empathising with most of the characters as you can see their failings and what led them to where they are now. The tango motif is wonderful, and the dance scenes add artistic flair to a story of passionate and dangerous love. There is something very archetypal about this story. It poses profound questions as to why we can become trapped in a life that imprisons our spirit, and the social barriers that prevent people from being truthful and being themselves. A modern classic.
