I think my biggest inspiration to work for this film is when I saw "LA
SINGLA" in Hamburg-Musichall 1971 .
SHE WAS SO FURIOSOFANTASTICO!!! I will never forget! All spectators were
standing on their chairs!!! (In Hamburg, a "cool" town this never
happens, i have never seen again! everybody was standing on their chairs
and cheering frantically! it was a different universe in hamburg that
evening!)
 
   
   
wonderful Flamenco artists but not in this film, saludos con sol!
