CINE FRANCES

CARMEN

LITERARY ADAPTATION - 90

That obscure object of….pleasure

Out of nowhere, Carmen arrived one day in Camargue, that wild and barren land at the eve of the last century. She is a Daughter of the wind. Proud Gipsy blodd flowing through her veins, still a child but a woman yet, she held her figure as she would a rifle. What did she want, what was she looking for?
Lonesome, only Carmen knew. She was facing the world’s hostily with her body as sole wapon. No one resisted her…This flawless liberty, which none of us could take from her, disturbed us, attracted us and drew us all mad.
Gipsy, she was bullfighter and bull at the same time, A woman first, totally and independently, she shone at a time reserved to men. Elusive fictional character, beyond the tragedy, we sometimes happen to believe she never existed!
