Nostalgia
Giuseppe Verdi
Late 2000s. A vernissage in a plush art gallery. Among the hand-picked guests, Carlo, Giuseppe and Lorenzo, three old friends, meet again after many years. Within the installation on display, a documentary showing footage of their revolutionary youth is being screened. Each of them seems to remember that time differently, but they do share one feeling: the shadow of Laura, who disappeared without a trace forty years earlier, still looms over them …
Text and music selected from Giuseppe Verdi’s early operas (1840-49)
