Captivating storyteller
A captivating storyteller acclaimed for his arresting imagery and deep feeling for fantasy, Ralf Pleger stands among today’s most innovative directors and filmmakers. His approach arises from a commitment to the Gesamtkunstwerk, the total work of art, and draws inspiration from early opera’s daring marriage of diverse artforms. It is driven, above all, by the will to defy convention and create things never seen before.
'an organic, cosmic and, in the final act, abstract and futuristic context against whih the love-death story plays out'
