Carla Simón's short film "Flamenco" earns a Latin Grammy nomination

Carla Simón's short film Flamenco has been nominated for a Latin Grammy in the Best Longform Music Video category, Variety reported on 10 November 2026.

The Latin Grammys are the awards for Latin music, including work sung in Spanish and Portuguese. The Best Longform Music Video category covers music films that run longer than the usual video clip. Flamenco is directed by Simón and stars Rocío Molina, a dancer and choreographer.

Flamenco is a Spanish art form built on song, dance and guitar. Molina's presence puts dance at the centre of the film, and the nomination recognises the work of the people who made it.

Simón is also known for Romería, which was a competition title at the Cannes Film Festival, where films compete for the festival's top prizes. Her next feature film after Romería will also be about flamenco, Variety reported.

The director told Variety she would love to make more music videos someday. She called herself a massive fan of the Spanish singer Rosalía, and added: "I would love, love to work with Rosalía. I hope it happens someday."

For now, the news is a nomination. The winner in each Latin Grammy category is decided at the ceremony, and Flamenco is one of the films in the running for that category.
