Sinekatalog’s take

Carlos Saura's dance film rehearses Lorca's tragedy of a bride who flees with her former lover, as flamenco becomes the story. Antonio Gades and Cristina Hoyos are electric in a spare, passionate and stripped-down classic.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
