Blood Wedding

A Spanish dance troupe gathers in a threadbare studio to perform a dress rehearsal for a flamenco interpretation of Federico Garcia Lorca’s play Blood Wedding. Choreographer and lead dancer Leonardo (Antonio Gades) is interviewed as the rest of the troupe makes final backstage preparations. Without dialogue and through their movements alone, the dancers tell the tragic tale of two doomed lovers and a bridegroom who meet their fates in a violent knife fight.
