About Il pipistrello (La Scala)
Every night, Johann puts on bat's wings and flies off to enjoy himself. Bella, troubled by her husband's hedonistic activities, consults with her friend Ulrich and plots to disguise herself as a mysterious beauty to seduce her husband. A ballet in two acts after Johann Strauss' "Die Fledermaus" choreographed by Roland Petit, staged by Teatro alla Scala and filmed for television.
Directed by Tina Protasoni, Il pipistrello (La Scala) leans on a strong ensemble — Alessandra Ferri, Massimo Murru, Luigi Bonino — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2003.
