"Need and fear and night are your masters. They separate you, they drive you against each other with blows." Friedrich Holderlin Simon Boccanegra is to succeed Jacopo Fiesco as Doge. Once elected, he hopes to marry Fiesco's daughter, Maria, who has just given birth to a daughter. But love and power seem incompatible this time too: Boccanegra is only exposed to strokes of fate and power games. Only after many years do all threads reveal their origin, when it is already almost too late. Boccanegra recognizes his daughter, Amelia, after he is dying, already weakened by a poison attack. Personal conflicts have long since become indistinguishable from political ones.
