“It's easy to make a revolution when you don't know anything,” recalls Mariusz Treliński, a noble Oscar winner today, in recognition of his influence on the transformation of the contemporary operatic language. He came from the cinema, from which he took the film's narrative model and attacked the medium of opera, which to the young director seemed "pretentious, bourgeois, irritating, flattering low tastes". And although Treliński explains that he was ignorant of opera at a young age, he is wrong to do so, because his brilliant cinematic debut according to Farewell to AutumnWitkacy, he amazed with the operatic momentum of staging, stage design and the one beneficial for musical theater, with the Dandy's sense of "playing artificiality". It is also impossible to talk about musical ignorance, since the homoerotic frolics of the characters were illustrated in the film by Nemorin's aria from Donizetti 's Love Potion. Enough to suspect that the director associated the nickname Ciociosan with something more than a Bulgarian supermarket vermouth. When he started working on Puccini's work with the set designer Boris Kudlička, Treliński was guided by minimalism and the desire to strip Madame Butterflyfrom Japanese kitsch. So: the paradox is that at the dawn of the greatest opera director's career of our century, there was only a desire to reduce the means of expression. A great canonical show, the first choice for beginners and a favorite for advanced players.
