The scent of tobacco rising from the sweltering streets of Andalusia and the weary dance moves echo through a gloomy cabaret in the back alleys of Granada. As a mother struggling with an abortion turns her helplessness into a battle for survival under dim lights, masks are worn on the city’s affluent streets. This drama, bearing the signature of Marcel L'Herbier, intertwines lives caught between the cold walls of the aristocracy and the harsh reality of poverty. Secret meetings and secrets hidden in the shadow of the Alhambra drag the characters toward an inevitable reckoning as the night deepens.
