Giovanni / Carmen plot

Theatre maker Giovanni Brand wants to reinvent the world-famous opera Carmen. Brand is drawn to the iconic role of Carmen, but at the same time fights against the archetypal image of the Roma woman portrayed in the opera. To break this stereotyping, Brand, himself from a Roma family, decides to portray Carmen himself. Along the way, he is confronted with his background and the long road he traveled from the caravan camp to the theatre. Where does he actually belong?
