EN DIRECTO EN CINES DE ESPAÑA Y ANDORRA EL MARTES 2 DE ABRIL DE 2019, 19:15H. CHRISTOF LOY DIRIGE A UN REPARTO DE CANTANTES PLAGADO DE ESTRELLAS, CON LA PRESENCIA DE ANNA NETREBKO, JONAS KAUFMANN Y LUDOVIC TÉZIER, EN LA ÉPICA ÓPERA DE VERDI, DIRIGIDA POR ANTONIO PAPPANO. Leonora se enamora de Don Álvaro, pero cuando su padre prohíbe su matrimonio, un fatal accidente desencadena un drama de obsesión, venganza y tragedia. Jonas Kaufmann y Anna Netrebko protagonizan la epopeya de Verdi La forza del destino , una ópera que exige el máximo de los cantantes para su poderosa música y el más rotundo tratamiento teatral para su relato de una amarga venganza que se lleva a cabo más allá de la distancia y el tiempo.
Fata Morgana
Following Bellavista and Totó, Peter Schreiner completes his informal trilogy of epic, black-and-white digital-video essay-films with the utterly monumental Fata Morgana. Shot in the Libyan desert and in an abandoned building in Lausitz, Germany, it features a man (Christian Schmidt), a woman (Giuliana Pachner, from Bellavista) - and, glimpsed now and again, a guide (Awad Elkish.) They talk, they fall silent. Winds blow. The sun shines. The camera runs. What gradually takes shape is nothing less than a painstakingly concentrated attempt to understand the human condition through the lens of cinema. A lofty ambition, and one that demands a considerable leap of faith on the part of the audience: this film is sedate, "difficult", challenging, often apparently impenetrable. But anyone who has seen Schreiner's previous films will be aware that he is by any standards a major artist, one that can be trusted to find places that other directors may not even suspect exist.
