Immersed from birth in the melodious flamenco of Cadíz, young Gitana dancer
Paloma Fantova emerges as a contender on the global stage, presenting her explosive, visceral flamenco with the exuberant CUNA.

Cuna is an extract of life danced from the memory. It is the living thought that does not die when the body ceases to exist, which allows us to connect with the true root of who we are. Cuna makes a trip to a landless place, where powerful memories live, where eternal suns are born. Only from the cradle are we what we dream.
