Aroview: The glorious insanity of Italian opera defeats all obstacles in this amusing behind-the-scenes account of a gigantic international production of Puccini’s Turandot, from the director of FROM MAO TO MOZART.

Collaborating the prodigious talents of conductor Zubin Mehta and Chinese film-maker Zhang Yimou, the production of a 15th Century costume epic proves to have its own share of tragedy and comedy, as it gradually escalates in scale to be finally staged as a massive outdoor spectacle at Beijing’s Forbidden City.
