Overview
This mini-opera, animated in charcoal, reimagines Georges Bizet’s Carmen and its enduring relevance to issues of sexuality and conflict. In this new work, Carmen is stripped of her usual associations, including gender, race, place and time, leaving only a universal human figure and Bizet’s oiseau rebelle (rebel bird), two alter egos competing for love. This struggle leads to rebirth and a new future.
