Carmen
In Seville, the soldier Don José is captivated by Carmen, who refuses to let anyone control her life. His attachment pulls him away from duty and towards jealousy as the bullfighter Escamillo enters her world. Georges Bizet’s opera follows a relationship shaped by desire, independence, and possession.
