Flamenco Rose

The heroine, Rosita Dominguez, is from a gypsy family living in San Juan famous for their flamenco skills. One night while the family is performing at a nightclub, Rosita is seen by Zach and his sister, Isolde, a semi-famous ballerina. Isolde is instantly convinced that Rosita would make a perfect ballerina -- one that she could live out her own failed dreams through -- and eventually convinces Rosita's family to let her go to New York to become a ballerina.

Rosita grows up and becomes a skilled ballerina on the brink of a fantastic career, however, she secretly longs to simply marry and become a wife and mother. Upon her return to San Juan for a visit, Zach tells her that they should get married and she decides that she prefers him over a career, to Isolde's fury.
