A vibrant Spanish style defines the production. On stage, Jose Navarro tells a friend about his love. This is a confession before execution. The story captivates the writer so much that he experiences it as if he were his own life. Two Joses appear - a young officer and a repentant robber, passion and broken dreams. It's all Carmen's fault - an angel and a demon rolled into one, a criminal, a victim. Why did the frantic gypsy conquer the heart of a nobleman, capture the imagination of generations, and become a symbol of a new era? The answer to the question should probably be sought in human nature - love and freedom, loyalty and tolerance, morality and humanism.
