Description:

Both brilliantly acted and sung by the internationally acclaimed South African theater company, Dimpho Di Kopane (DDK), U-Carmen is a stunning adaptation of perhaps the world s best-loved opera, Carmen. Re-imagined in the modern world of South African pool halls, bars, courtyards and barracks U-Carmen tells the story of a cigarette factory-worker, Carmen, (Malefane) and her doomed love affair with a police sergeant. As the two grow more emotionally connected, their relationship escalates violently, culminating in a tragic conclusion of revenge and madness.

Features:

•

The original CARMEN may not have been set amidst the grimy South African bar scene, but this modern reinterpretation is, and it also features the talents of the South African Theater Company.

BeautifulAug 20, 2007
By Charles Hodge
I loved this movie and the acting, my only problem is tha Amazon tells us the movie is in English and it's not. Stop fooling the customers. If fact Amazon needs to change all the other foreign films thay say are in English and are not. Customer beware.

One of the best movies I've ever seen!Feb 24, 2008
By Joanne Frances Gladney
If you like the music from the opera Carmen you will love seeing it sung in a contemporary setting! I rarely buy movie DVD's but this one is wonderful!

Fantastic!!!Oct 06, 2008
By H. J. Kirton
This movie was well done!! The cast was very talented and the story which had a contemporary theme made it enjoyable to view. I wish there were more movies as this. U-Carmen may well establish a precedent for more movies like it. Good work!!

Great MovieMay 28, 2008
By Heather L. Koranteng "HK"
I saw this when it was released at IFF and it was fantastic- I've been waiting for it to come out on DVD- it's subtitled in English- but it's so good - that just like live Opera - you forget about that after a few minutes- it's a well done production- nothing amature about it - Paula has an amazing voice

magnificent surpriseFeb 28, 2010
By Frankdecavalcante "bargain hunter"
I took a real chance on buying this dvd, but my gambling had a great payoff. This is a much better retelling of the opera Carmen than the more famous Carmen Jones. It combines the classic Bizet story and music with South African locale and customs. Carmen herself is quite a big woman, but she exudes sexual appeal and charm. It is one of the best opera dvds around and for such a bargain price!! I plan to order multiple copies in the future to give out as gifts. Delightful in every respect!
