La Paloma, La Paloma

Daniel Schmid

Switzerland, France, 1974, Color, 109’

La Paloma, a nightclub singer, succumbs to the insistent courtship of a rich admirer and marries him. Initially dying, she recovers and takes a lover. A macabre tale, a decadent operatic fantasy, the role that made Ingrid Caven a star.
