Plot

Amid the pulsating rhythm of tango and the vibrant backdrop of 1933 Buenos Aires, we are introduced to Juana Romero - a seamstress whose life beats to the tune of Carlos Gardel, Argentina's beloved tango maestro. The whispers of society label her as insane when she claims to have been the wife of not only Renzo Franchi, but also the legendary Gardel himself. Her narrative unfolds as a tapestry of love, passion, and music. Irresistibly drawn to Renzo, a singer bearing an uncanny resemblance to Gardel, she parts ways with her current beau, Gustavo. As she persuades Renzo's trio to perform Gardel's magnetic tangos, Renzo unexpectedly lands a recording gig for a Ford commercial, stepping into Gardel's shoes. This twist of fate propels the trio - Juana entrancingly included - on a star-crossed tour across the north. The ensuing journey sees the couple's relationship unravel, with Juana returning home and Renzo setting his sights on the allure of New York. But destiny has a peculiar sense of humor, calling upon Renzo once again to masquerade as Gardel. As legend intertwines with a mystical bracelet, Juana's extraordinary story takes a turn no one could predict, creating an enchanting web of intrigue.
