My Own Ring: Wagner's The Ring of the Nibelung
The opera often intimidates those who are not passionate about it. Wagner even more! Yet, when an accountant of the Geneva Grand Théâtre turns videographer to film the backstage performances of all those who have made the production of Wagner's Ring cycle possible, the great work turns into magic and the world of opera suddenly becomes accessible to all. Intimidated by Wagner's monumental work, the videographer interviews singers, stage directors, extras, stagehands, musicians and costume designers. Suspense, laughter, beauty and emotion are part of the journey! From the first rehearsals to the frantic hours before the premiere, this behind-the-scene documentary shows us the making of an amazing cornerstone of opera. Also available as a 2 x 52'series.
