Antonio (Antonio Gades) is a choreographer who falls madly in love with the sultry star (Laura del Sol) of his flamenco-infused production of Carmen. While his feelings for Laura are strong, he cares just as strongly about the show. On top of his fierce emotions, Antonio is confused about the proper direction for the performance. Before long, his affection mutates into jealousy, and the lovers tale begins to reflect the famous tragedy of the opera they perform on stage.
