Anna-Sophie Mahler - Alla fine del mare
Description
Anna Sophie Mahler experiments with an original idea of play-score, distinguished by the use of documentary material interwoven with music and images. Alla fine del mare, based on Fellini's film E la nave va, is about a group of opera singers past their prime on a cruise, who suddenly come across refugees from the war, creating two worlds initially destined to clash.
