City in Heat

A group of friends who are all approaching middle age gather daily at a the Garllington Pub in Buenos Aires to drink their daily coffee and discuss the topics of the day when a sudden tragedy suddenly snaps them back to reality. While the owner of the bar has explicitly banned the topics of politics and soccer in order to prevent tension between combative friends Sergio and Marco, there never seems to be a shortage of topics to turn to in substitution. While most of conversations eventually end up being about women, the appearance of Tango singer Valeria one day brings the topic of relationships in general to the forefront. All of these friends are single, and realize that if they are going to find a mate they better do so soon. When finance worker Sebastian suffers a serious emotional breakdown, the generally jovial atmosphere of the bar turns quickly somber.~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
