Carlos Saura's last part of his trilogy interpreting famous Spanish works in flamenco, the first two of which were Blood Wedding and Carmen. In El Amor Brujo, Saura was inspired by the work of Manuel de Falla, with Antonio Gades, Cristina Hoyos and Laura del Sol delivering stunning flamenco performances in the story of two ill-fated lovers. Spanish with English subtitles.     Es costumbre gitana comprometer a sus hijos en matrimonio desde niños, sin poder decidir por sí mismos. Esta "ley" recae sobre Candela y José. Carmelo, otro gitanillo, eterno enamorado de Candela, presencia enmudecido esta inesperada escena. Se cumple el tiempo y se celebra la boda. En la propia fiesta, José reitera a Lucía la pasión que siente por ella. En la típica Navidad del poblado gitano, José busca a Lucía, alejándose de Candela. Surge una pelea donde José muere apuñalado y Carmelo es conducido injustamente a prisión. Candela, que no se resigna a su suerte adversa, acude cada noche al descampado donde fue asesinado José, buscando el espectro de su marido. Cuando Carmelo sale de la cárcel, no da crédito a las escenas de brujería que le cuenta Candela. Le declara su amor al que Candela no puede corresponder porque el espectro se interpone entre ellos. Recurren a los conjuros de la hechicera del poblado, y a la luz de la luna se celebra la "Danza Ritual del Fuego" que ahuyenta a los espíritus. En la oscuridad, el espectro aparece y los cuatro personajes danzan para decidir su destino.
