The Faces of Carmen, a documentary in production directed by Hilan Warshaw for broadcasts in 2025 (the 150th anniversary of Carmen’s premiere, as well as Bizet’s death) takes an unusual approach to exploring this evergreen piece. The film follows rising 28-year-old opera star Aigul Akhmetshina as she undertakes a truly unique journey, performing the role of Carmen in seven different productions in a single year.
