Tango v svilenih coklah

A painter who also writes, an immigrant marked by being a foreigner, takes his young lover Allanis to Toronto airport; she says she is flying to see relatives in San Francisco. Already at the farewell he suspects she is leaving him, and he is right: she has gone to Los Angeles. A detective he hires discovers that she is making films for a director she now lives with. Allanis, his model and the great passion of his life, wants to live in the moment without the old moral rules that he, a scrupulous man, cannot shake off. Trying to escape his thoughts, he flees to the prairie, only to find that the silence forces him to think about her, about love and desire, and about the people around them.
