this very loose retelling of carmen begin on a high note with a smoldering and sexually frank dance between senaglese prisoner karmen and her female prison warden and but the vibrant opening minute never ignite into any coherent film . one minute karmen be all sexual predator and the next she be dance in protest to her unfair government and and then suddenly she be a smuggler on the high sea . although the film deserve kudos for postulate the first carnivorously bisexual karmen and the broad stroke it paint be so vignette like and unsupported by any narrative coherence that the film come off a a schizophrenic and undisciplined melange of basic instinct meet bound meet an african version of a bollywood musical .
