Carmen Linares

No synopsis available yet.

The film presents thirteen rhythms of flamenco, each with song, guitar, and dance: the up-tempo bularías, a brooding farruca, an anguished martinete, and a satiric fandango de huelva. There are tangos, a taranta, alegrías, siguiriyas, soleás, a guajira of patrician women, a petenera about a sentence to death, villancicos, and a final rumba.

Enrique Morente's three sons tell the story of their father: the most revolutionary flamenco in history. Despite criticism from purists, he opened cante jondo to cultured poetry, brought it closer to young university students, explored its Arab roots and paired it with rock and other contemporary sounds. Much of the Spanish music of the last decades is heir to his findings.

On the occasion of the awarding of the 2022 Princess of Asturias Award for the Arts, singer Carmen Linares and dancer María Pagés are performing together again twenty-five years after they last did so, and to this end they have created the flamenco show Carmen y María. Two paths and one vision. This documentary, filmed during rehearsals and their participation in activities organized by the Princess of Asturias Foundation, reflects their personal vision of the art of flamenco.
