Nights in Andalusia (German: Andalusische Nächte) is a 1938 German musical film directed by Herbert Maisch and starring Imperio Argentina, Friedrich Benfer and Karl Klüsner.[1] [2] It is based on the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet, itself based on the novella Carmen by Prosper Mérimée. It was shot at the Babelsberg Studios in Berlin. The film's sets were designed by the art director Franz Schroedter. A Spanish-language version Carmen, la de Triana was made at the same time. The making of the film was an influence on the 1998 Spanish film The Girl of Your Dreams.
