- Synopsis
- "Love still " is a documentary on the illusion that keeps alive the members of a group of men and women of around 70 years old that meet once a week to dance in an old bar of Montevideo. How these people live the physical contact, the recollections of the past, realized dreams, frustrations and disappointments and the desires of not remaining seated waiting for the death.
  Every Friday, we will see these prominent figures preparing themselves to go to dance from the intimacy of their homes, where we listen to their stories and what they expect, each one on its own way, of love in the oldness.
  With an attractive visual compromise and testimonies of discharge emotion, the director leads us to discovering these micro worlds where the weekly dance is the way of living through the future, keeping flushed the hope to feel love, which is, in turn, the motive that makes them live through the present without giving up in their last days.
