Wotan is making Valhalla stronger, fathering Valkyrie daughters who gather the greatest war heroes to protect Valhalla. In a battle against the ruthless Hunding, Wotan swears an oath that he will sacrifice his son Sigmund to safeguard the order of the gods.

The growing passion between Sigmund and Sieglinde tempers the chaos of conflict and war with nuances of great love. The story of the lovers gives rise to Siegfried, Part III of the Ring cycle.
Die Walküre is a universally relatable story about war, fear, courage, and love. The impressive visuals, the psychological sharpness and the riveting plot keep the audience as gripped as the best of today’s drama series.
