synopsis
Legendary Spanish director Carlos Saura adds to his long and varied career with the performance piece Salome, a filmed record of Dos y Danza company's flamenco ballet. Taking its narrative from the oft-told biblical tale, the performance opens with a documentary-style chronicle of the company's attempts to bring the tale to stage, leading up to a lushly filmed presentation of the complete piece.
