Puccini background

Puccini

A renowned Italian composer's reputation and creative pursuits are put to the test when he's falsely accused of having an affair with his maid, forcing him to confront the consequences of his personal and professional life.

In the town of Torre del Lago, Puccini writes "The Girl of the Golden West" while dealing with accusations of infidelity from his wife Elvira. As the drama unfolds, a modern Scottish company rehearses and performs Puccini's last opera, "Turandot", with parallels drawn between the two stories.
