Tango Shoes will be a five-minute short produced by Breaking Light Films.  It is currently in development to be filmed on location in Dublin, Ireland.

Synopsis

Alone in a strange and foreign city, a man searches for a room to rent.  He carries few possessions, but the most precious things he owns are a small collection of records by the Argentinian tango singer Carlos Gardel, and a vintage record player. 

His life revolves in a cycle of working every day and listening to his records each night.  One evening he is greeted by the familiar sound of tango music coming from a neighbour's room in his boarding house. 

After days of consideration, he finally decides to take out his old dancing shoes, polish them up and take a chance.
