The Flamenco Clan

I don't think this has been raised before, sorry if it has.

This is a fantastic DVD documentary style film about the family Carmona 'Habichuela'. Deals with day to day life both at home and on the road. The film concludes with a family Juerga where they all join in, padres Juan and Pepe, madres, tios, ninas the lot.
Great insight with tender moments.

That's the Peña in Granada. Thanks for the reminder Jim. I keep meaning to pick this up at the local videostore. It got great reviews. A lot of it was filmed here in the Albaicín. Hmmm wish I had been at the Peña that night.
