From case cover:
Es ésta una historia de amor y celos en donde el deseo aniquilador conduce a las personajes inexplorablemente a la destrucción. No vale la pena racionalizar los hechos que conforman la historia; la fuerza de los mismos es suficiente para ir creando esa espiral que se va cerrando hasta el drama final. La historia de Carmen es la historia de una obsesión devoradora. Historia eterna de amor y desamor.
El Nuestra Carmen hemos incorporado la danza y la música española como forma de expresión viva, paralelamente a la música de la Opera, sumergiendonos en este personaje mítico que nos conduce a través de los celos a la tragedia.
Translated Case Cover (Google Translate):
This is a story of love and jealousy where the annihilating desire leads the characters inexplorably to destruction. It is not worth rationalizing the facts that make up the story; the strength of them is enough to go creating that spiral that is closing until the final drama. The story of Carmen is the story of a devouring obsession. Eternal story of love and lack of love.
El Carmen has incorporated Spanish dance and music as a form of living expression, parallel to the music of the Opera, submerging us in this mythical character that leads us through jealousy to tragedy.
From IMDb:
While rehearsing Carmen of Bizet, the middle-aged choreographer Antonio brings the sexy Carmen to perform the lead role. Antonio falls in love for Carmen, who is an independent and seductive woman incapable to accept a possessive love. When Carmen has an affair with another dancer, Antonio is consumed by his jealousy like D. José in the original opera, entwining fiction with reality.
DVD video; Dolby Digital 2.0; stereo; PAL; Regions 1-6; 4:3 fullscreen.
Spanish audio. Optional English or Spanish subtitles.
