The story of Saint Joan of Arc, a girl from the French provinces, the trial before the court of inquisition and finally her horrible end on the scaffold form the basis of the famous film  The Passion of Joan of Arc by Carl Theodor Dreyer from 1928. Johannes Kalitzke's film music for Dreyer's masterpiece premiered in Villach in 2020. Kalitzke expands the silent film classic with opera scenes with texts by Kristine Tornquist, in which the historical material is transferred to contemporary issues. The scenic intermezzi, which are now being realized for the first time, illuminate the border areas of inspiration and fanaticism. Kalitzke's film opera is based on the silent film and adds far more than just new music: it asks about the background of the story, its potential for turmoil and insight.
