Flamenco dancing is the lifeblood of the Gitanos, Spanish gypsies who have lived in exile for centuries. In looking for the roots of the so-called “New Flamenco,” director Dominique Abel journeys to Tres Mil Viviendas, a rundown housing project where the spirit of music and dance invigorates this multiracial community.
