Jorge is a taxi driver from Córdoba clinging to rhetoric of order, meritocracy, and anger. His only friend is López, his dead rabbit—confidant and spiritual compass. At night, Jorge and López cross paths with passengers who embody various social stereotypes, distorted mirrors of a society on edge. Amid absurd conversations and increasingly extreme situations, his routine shatters when the young man who humiliated him hours earlier gets into the cab. Caught between anger, delirium, and a yearning for vindication, Jorge must decide whether to act to reclaim his wounded dignity or accept becoming the object of ridicule he feels the world has imposed on him.

When a Tango dancer asks a Rabbi to enter a dance competition, there’s one big problem—due to his Orthodox beliefs, he’s not allowed to touch her! But the prize money would save his school from bankruptcy, so they develop a plan to enter the competition without sacrificing his faith, and the bonds of family and community are tested one dazzling dance step at a time in this lighthearted fable.

¡Tango! follows a formula established by Carlos Gardel with films such as Luces de Buenos Aires (The Lights of Buenos Aires, 1931) in which a melodramatic story is interspersed with tango songs. However, the film had less dialog and more music, making it more like a musical revue. This format would be copied by many subsequent films. The plot is derived from tango songs. Many of these songs tell of the seduction of an innocent slum girl by a rich man who promises her a glamorous life, but who abandons her when her looks fade. The stylized and sentimental plot of ¡Tango! revolves around a young man who is abandoned by his girlfriend for an older rich man and is heartbroken. The film follows his misfortunes.
