It’s 1928 and in the dusty heat of the Andalusian province of Almeria, a young bride abandons her husband-to-be on the morning of her wedding to elope with her childhood sweetheart.
In a society obsessed with reputation and honour the actions of one person can divide a community. With the town in crisis the elopers are hunted down with terrifying consequences.
A true story set to an original score with a cast of more than 20 actors, in a translation which captures the fierce energy, dramatic tension and lyrical intensity of Lorca’s original novel.
