Description
1936. A drama of women in the villages of Spain.
Powerful matriarch, Bernarda Alba, following her second husband’s funeral, decrees to her five daughters that the household will enter a period of eight years mourning during which time they will shut the doors to the outside world of the village. The only one it seems will escape this fate is the eldest daughter, Angustias, who is already betrothed to the village’s most eligible and attractive young bachelor Pepe el Romano. In the strict confines of the house, jealousy and suppressed sexuality rise to the surface amongst the daughters.
