Details.
Wiki.
Carmen is a 1983 Spanish film adaptation of the novel Carmen by Prosper Mérimée, using music from the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet. It was directed and choreographed in the flamenco style by Carlos Saura and María Pagés. It is the second part of Saura's flamenco trilogy in the 1980s, preceded by Bodas de sangre and followed by El amor brujo. The film was an Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film at the 56th Academy Awards.
The film's basic plotline is that the modern dancers re-enact in their personal lives Bizet's tragic love affair, up to its lethal climax.
