Moviepilot

Mit Ai Weiweis Turandot übernimmt der chinesische Künstler und Aktivist seine erste Opern-Regie und erweckt Puccinis Stück im Opernhaus von Rom zum Leben. In seiner eigenen Vision der Inszenierung testet die titelgebende Prinzessin ihre Bewerber mit Rätseln, wobei das Scheitern den Tod bedeutet. Dokumentiert von Maxim Derevianko zeigen sich zwischen der Bühne und Ai Weiweis eigenem Werk, das Autoritäten provoziert, Parallelen.

Transcript

00:00I'm not interested in opera at all. Normally I don't listen to music. My

00:15Torandot is going to be different.

00:22This is our director Ai Weiwei. He's been called the most powerful figure in

00:27contemporary art. I know Ai Weiwei as a free speech magnet, as a freedom fighter.

00:34This is a perfect story about China. China is not a free country.

00:57I always say the work is like my home. So it's like suddenly you build a home, it

01:04collapses.

01:12Why Ai Weiwei have to do a Torandot? You know, what is my interpretation of the show?

01:27No one has ever done a Torandot. That's about the world today as it is, so

01:33directly. Every detail, every costume, every prop has been designed new. Nothing is the

01:41way it ever usually looks.

01:44Ai Weiwei's Torandot, of course, related to his work and his life. The concept of his artwork is

01:53definitely related to the Torandot.

02:04I think art competes with reality and art welcomes the last words.
