¡Salsa!

In between prejudiced gazes, Margarita, a free spirited woman and salsa music lover, walks away from her marriage searching for her own identity. At night Margarita finds refuge in a seashore kiosk, where improvised salsa parties take place. Her path crosses with Liana’s, a deaf tourist who arrives at the peak of the party. Seeing in Liana a world foreign to her own, Margarita finds the perfect company to explore her true being, and decides to teach Liana how to dance, understanding her deafness as an opportunity for a different type of communication, tactile and corporeal. Liana and Margarita see in each other the ideal complement to find the freedom they are looking for.
