Idomeneus, King of Crete, one of the great heroes during the total destruction of the famous city of Troy was sailing back to his realm when a terrible storm broke loose near the city of Sidon. The storm was of such violence that in his fear Idomeneus made a solemn promise to Neptune, God of the Seas, to sacrifice the first person -no matter who it be- that he would meet on the shore if he and his people would only get there safely.
Un drama que tiene como fondo a la célebre prima donna española del siglo XIX María Malibrán, muerta a los veintiocho años mientras cantaba en una velada musical. Un film que está más cerca de Murnau o Stiller que de los contemporáneos de Schroeter.... Los actores parecen caminar o gesticular conforme a las leyes de otro planeta y avanza a una velocidad que no sabríamos reconocer como lenta ni rápida y es una especie de emoción pura y limpia del gesto, de la mirada, del caminar.
Collage of dramatic scenes, some exaggerated to comic effect, with asynchronous sound from well known classic, operatic, and rock and roll music – with different approaches to love, suffering, and death.
A love triangle, accompanied by traditional German Christmas songs.
