Synopsis

"To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves." ~ Federico Garcia Lorca Yerma longs to have a baby. Tormented by her inability to conceive a child, she desperately searches for a way to achieve her dream of motherhood but, ignored by her husband, ridiculed by other women and exasperated by fruitless advice, Yerma sinks further into her misery, with devastating consequences.'Yerma' is a powerful tragedy that examines the destructive potential of unchecked desire and the devastating impact of societal expectations on women.
