Rinat Shaham is the provocative and free-spirited Carmen, while Dymtro Popov portrays Don José with a perfect mix of naivety and desire.

Blackhorse Lowe's new film features music by Matthew Aucoin—his first return to LA Opera since
Eurydice—and poetry by Jake Skeets. Two mystical beings emerge from the rugged New Mexico landscape. They come together to explore the city of Gallup—the ceremonial capital of Native America, known as Na'nízhoozhí in the Navajo
language. As night falls, they melt back into the desert under a star-filled sky. Filmmaker Blackhorse Lowe's new Digital Short features music by Matthew Aucoin and poetry by Jake Skeets. A Navajo artist (like Lowe) who grew up in Gallup, Skeets gives his hometown a leading role in his poetry. Lowe's film is an unflinching yet tender portrait of the city in 2021, seen through the eyes of
the supernatural.
