In his production of »Madama Butterfly«, the Japanese director Amon Miyamoto tells the story of Cio-Cio-San and Pinkerton from the point of view of the son of the two main characters. After the son receives a letter from his dying father at the beginning of the opera, he embarks on a journey of discovery that shows him the love of his parents. In our first making-of part, the Japanese director talks about his reading.

At the centre of Giacomo Puccini's Tragedia giapponese, set in Nagasaki at the beginning of the 20th century, is the young geisha Cio-Cio-San, called »Butterfly«. The American Naval Lieutenant Pinkerton enters into a short-term marriage with Cio-Cio-San – according to a possible practice in Japan at the time – and rents the right house for the stay. While for Pinkerton the liaison was planned from the outset as an erotic pleasure, for Cio-Cio-San it means not only the opportunity to escape poverty, but the love of her life ... Even today, the tragic love story, which premiered at La Scala in Milan in 1904, touches hearts, shaken by the realism with which the cultural misunderstandings and their deadly consequences are pointed out. Japanese director Amon Miyamoto, together with star designer Kenzō Takada, presents his own Eastern view of the Japanese-American liaison.
