Childhood of famous flamenco singer Antonio de la Malena. Born into a poor, farm-working, gitano (Gypsy) family, he grew up in the final years of Spain’s Franco. Briefly “discovered” at age 9, circumstances independent of his singing conspired to end his childhood when he was 13 and thrust him into an adult world.
