    • Synopsis
    • This film tells the story of how a dance show is created. But meantime we accompany Eva Yerbabuena company in the artistic process and, we discover that it is not one show more, because Eva wants to share with the audience her family background. Her vision of the tragedy of the Spanish Civil War and its senseless and cruelty, that made thousands of children orphans and injured.
      Eva molds and let herself being molded, directs and dances in a manner that she only knows. She enjoys and suffers while her protagonist passes her life struggling to break the cords that bind her to memories which make her happiness impossible.
      And above all, the best contemporary flamenco.
