Cervantes Institute in London is celebrating International Flamenco Day (16 November) with a screening of the documentary "Red Carnation" by director Roser Corella. The film tells the story of the life of flamenco dancer Manuel Liñán, focusing on the creative process behind the show "Muerta de Amor" and offering an intimate glimpse into his experience and his deep connection with flamenco.

The documentary follows flamenco dancer Manuel Liñán in his search for personal freedom through flamenco. Beyond celebrating this art form, the film explores the universal desire to live without fear or taboos. Flamenco becomes the mirror and driving force of a story about love, intimacy and struggle, where tradition and freedom coexist. A journey in which bodies speak and remind us of the profound need to love and be loved.

The screening will be followed by a discussion with director Roser Corella and artist Alejandro Postigo, who specialises in copla, flamenco and contemporary dance.
