La vida breve

About the show

Young Salud, a Romani woman from Granada, is passionately in love with Paco, a well-to-do man who is already engaged to a woman of his social class. Her uncle Sarvaor and grandmother try to prevent her from interrupting Paco’s wedding after she learns the truth. Salud and Sarvaor gate-crash the celebration. Paco says he does not know her and orders her removed; Salud collapses and dies at his feet.
