THE MAGIC FLUTE
2.12.24 (19:00) • RITCS • €6 • English subs.
It is almost fifty years since Ingmar Bergman put his indelible stamp on Mozart’s Singspiel The Magic Flute, which is still a yardstick for the filming of opera. Bergman preserved the childlike depiction of the amorous vicissitudes of Tamino and Pamina and of Papagena and Papageno, while at the same time developing these characters in an inimitable way, making them psychologically recognizable people of flesh and blood. For the film, which was produced by and shown on Swedish television, he recreated in the studio the baroque Drottningholm theatre near Stockholm. Ingmar Bergman Jr, the filmmaker’s son, will introduce this film screening and also have the closing word.

In 1975, Bergmans’s longtime collaborators Kantinka Faragò and Måns Reuterswärd followed the director during the production of The Magic Flute / Trollflöjten (1975). Their film provides exclusive documentary insight into the legendary filmmaker’s creative process. It was preceded by Papageno (1935), a short, black & white, silhouette animation fantasy piece by the German film director Lotte Reiniger, also inspired by Mozart’s The Magic Flute.
