Carlos Saura and Antonio Gades’ first collaboration centers on a flamenco company, led by Gades and fellow dancer Cristina Hoyos, as they work on an adaptation of Lorca’s famous play Blood Wedding. Deceptively simple and pared back to focus on the creative process and artistic skills of those involved, the resulting film would bring the energy and skill of flamenco to an international film-going audience.
