Parsifal 42 years old

A psychological interpretation of the opera mixing in references to the history of Germany, Wagner's life, German literature and philosophy. The action is centered around Wagner's death mask. Kundry is the main character - one might read the film as the story of her redemption rather than that of Amfortas.
