Summary

A documentary film on the unique discovery of the lost Vivaldi opera Argippo (1730). This film follows the gradual inception of the new-age world premier of this opera and unveils a suggestive beauty of baroque theatre based on this interpretation of Argippo – the most significant opera for Prague before Mozart’s Don Giovanni.
