When The Pure Forms Sunk

Antonio, in what seems to be his last days of life, remembers a Holy Week from his childhood, in a remote village in Cordoba. Seven days that made him the man he is, and the child he cries to become again. A letter from an adult mind, in memory of the past.

Lola wanders in her old age, through the olive groves that are transformed by the mysticism of the night, through her own house, through the winding streets of the "Puerta de Córdoba" through a summer cinema that seems to welcome only her... There, she meets the ghosts of the former members of her family, who accompany her in the loneliness of her last days.

OAO is a cinematic opera in which mezzo-soprano Anna Wallace explores intergenerational trauma, casting a spell to be reborn through the filmic medium.
