A short film celebrating life backstage at the Bregenzer Festspiele.

Almost every night of the 2019 season, I filmed the overture to Rigoletto from a different perspective on the Lake Stage in Bregenz. I had no real project in mind, I just loved these few minutes of dramatic stillness and anticipation; singers, stunts, and technicians gearing up for another huge show, sharing a soundtrack as the seasons changed around us.

​

In 2020, when the revival was cancelled, I sat down to cut these perspectives together.
