About this event

Violeta, a self-sacrificing rhumba dancer, attracts the wrath of a local gangster when she rescues an abandoned baby from a bin. Facing down the violent rivalries of the men around her with fiery defiance, she raises the child as her own. Drenched in the sweat, tears and booze of Mexico City’s red-light-district nightclubs, this delirious cabaretera features the iconic Sevilla at her exuberant best.
