Before We Move

The film documents a Russian gay couple before their immigration to Israel. While organising queer tango events they are feeling lost about the departure. Tango is a pair dance originated in the poor port areas of Argentina and was danced by men, emigrants from Southern Europe, Africa, South America. In the modern time the international queer community reinvented it as Queer Tango. It’s a different way to dance, where nobody takes your gender, sexual orientation or choice of role for granted. The rising level of homophobia in Russia forces many queer citizens to leave their country and seek refuge abroad.
