UPC 5051865628224
Plácido Domingo is the most important person alive in opera. Greatest of the stage tenors still performing, experienced conductor, intendant of not one but two US opera houses - these bald facts hardly begin to delineate the man. His influence is felt in opera houses worldwide, and his support can be the making of a singer's career. And on very rare occasions he allows television cameras in.
This film takes the form of a retrospective of his greatest work. In specially-filmed, extensive interviews, illustrated by performance footage, he speaks movingly of his most important roles, building a picture of this unique artist throughout his extraordinary career.
