L’oca del Cairo, ossia Lo sposo deluso
A miserly marquis and a wealthy old count contrive to marry girls in each other’s protection. Everything seems to be going to plan, until a giant goose starts raining money from the sky. After the success of Die Entführung aus dem Serail, Mozart began composing L'oca del Cairo and Lo sposo deluso but gave up on both of them. The two fragmentary comedies were never staged in his lifetime but are brought together in this new pasticcio at Hungarian State Opera conceived by its General Director, Szilveszter Ókovács.
Aura
Special Effects
Four kids, Tokyo, Pete, Adam and Esther wake up in their stranded car in an abandoned field only to find that the Sun did not rise. What's more, they discover that a strange, 30 foot diameter, almost invisible, bionic "aura" is covering their surroundings. It reacts to their touch, and soon mysterious things start to happen. Our heroes find seashells in and around their car, the smell and the sound of the ocean fill the air, and long lost memories start to materialize in front of their very eyes. Rainfall from nowhere, unexplainable noises, mysterious messages and clues hidden all around force them to go along on an investigation that reveals much more than they would have ever hoped for: they unearth long forgotten secrets rooted deep in the very beginning of mankind's existence. And these secrets have direct consequences not only on their lives; but also on the survival of our planet as we know it.
