El amor brujo (1986 film)

El amor brujo (Love, the Magician, or Wedded by Witchcraft) or Carlos Saura Dance Trilogy, Part 3: El Amor Brujo is a 1986 Spanish musical film written and directed by Carlos Saura.

[1] The film is based on El amor brujo composed by Manuel de Falla.

Candela, who is loved by Carmelo, marries José in a pre-arranged marriage decided by their respective fathers.

Although Candela is now "free" to marry Carmelo she is haunted (and obsessed) by the ghost of José, who reappears every night to dance with her.

Tía Rosario provides the solution - Lucia must dance with José, an act which will exorcise his ghost forever.
