Rossini's Ghost
In a kitchen in Italy in 1862, little Reliana helps her
grandmother Rosalie make pasta sauce. As steam swirls magically through
the kitchen, Rosalie argues with her oldest friend Martina and tells the
story of an opera composer they once both knew. Soon, Reliana finds
herself transported through time back to a theatre in Rome nearly 50 years
earlier. She is invisible to everyone but the composer, Signor Rossini.
She watches in alarm as one of the singers puts a curse on the production
and everything begins to go wrong. Set in 1816, the year The Barber of
Seville had its disastrous premiere, Rossini's Ghost is the story of three
women who learn that friendship, like opera - or a great pasta sauce -
requires nurturing, patience, and time. Also available: Soundtrack CD
which features music of Rossini as heard throughout the video.
