Carmen (1983)
Carmen is a 1983 Spanish-language drama movie directed by Carlos Saura, with a running time of 1h 42m. It stars Antonio Gades, Laura del Sol and Paco de Lucía.
While rehearsing a flamenco ballet adaptation of Bizet's opera “Carmen”, Antonio, the choreographer, falls in love with the main dancer, Carmen, a fiercely independent woman. Antonio is slowly consumed by jealousy and possessiveness towards Carmen, just like Don José in the original opera, blurring the lines between fiction and reality.
