Argentinian DNA: Immigrants of Argentina

In search of a better life in Argentina

In this episode, correspondent Francisco Guaita meets people who came to Argentina in search of work, passion, or a safe haven. From a Schindler’s List survivor and a tango lover from Russia, to Basque descendants and a tennis star with Croatian roots, these immigrants describe how they've found a better life in their new country and added to the diversity of Argentina’s culture.

Tango is a passionate dance that's become an Argentine trademark. Elena fell in love with tango so much she moved to Buenos Aires from Moscow to become a professional dancer.
