Plot
The year is 1808. A year passed since the beginning of the Peninsular War and singer Carmen is in love with two men at the same time. The men are: a guerrilla named Antonio and the French sergeant José, who, during the war, end up on the opposite sides and therefore are sworn enemies to each other.
