Vengo
2000, 90 minutes, Rated M
Interweaving gorgeous Cinemascope images of the Andalusian plains with intricate shots of exotic flamenco dancers, Vengo tells the story of a blood feud raging between two families. At the center of the story is Caco, a proud man who must fight for his family's honor and the safety of his young, mentally-challenged nephew Diego. After witnessing the death of his beloved daughter, Caco transfers his protective love to Diego, who has been threatened by the rival family, the Caravacas. The beautiful traditional songs of internationally-acclaimed musicians La Caita, Tomatito, and La Paquera act as characters in and of themselves, echoing the emotions of the characters in every guitar strum and note sung.
