Der Tod Der Maria Malibran, The Death Of Maria Malibran

Werner Schroeter

Germany, 1971, Color, 104’

Feminine beauties, mute and ecstatic, sometimes in drag, haunt this poetic rambling about a diva of Romantic opera. Duets, trios of faces to which music serves as voice. Werner Schroeter’s cinema at its best.
