- Salzburger Festspiele 2023: Giuseppe Verdis "Macbeth" ähnelt einer griechischen Tragödie und einem Thriller. Eine solche Oper verlangt außergewöhnliche Sängerdarsteller. In der Regie von Krzysztof Warlikowski und unter der musikalischen Leitung von Philippe Jordan verkörpern Asmik Grigorian und Vladislav Sulimsky ein Paar, das in Leidenschaft, Wahnsinn und Bluttaten vereint ist. Die erste Shakespeare-Adaption Giuseppe Verdis und die zehnte seiner insgesamt 26 Opern wurde 1847 in Florenz uraufgeführt, eine revidierte Fassung folgte 1865 in Paris. Verdi selbst war es eine seiner liebsten: "'Macbeth', den ich mehr liebe als meine anderen Opern ...", schrieb er kurz nach der Premiere an seinen Schwiegervater und Förderer Antonio Barezzi. Und es ist auch eine ungewöhnliche Oper: Ohne jede Liebeshandlung und mit einem in eine Nebenrolle gedrängten ersten Tenor. Im ersten Akt kehren die beiden schottischen Feldherren Macbeth und Banco aus einer siegreichen Schlacht zurück - und begegnen einer Schar von Hexen, die Macbeth die Krone von Schottland prophezeien. Seine Frau schürt daraufhin seinen Ehrgeiz und treibt ihn zum Morden an. Das "Melodramma" nimmt seinen Lauf. Durch die Prophezeiung der Hexen bemächtigt sich eine verbrecherische Denkweise mit einer von der Musik transportierten Unausweichlichkeit gänzlich des Verstandes von Macbeth - wie ein Fluss, der, einmal über die Ufer getreten, die Landschaft bis in die letzten Winkel überflutet und dem Untergang weiht. Regie führte Krzysztof Warlikowski, der viele bedeutende Produktionen nach Werken der griechischen Tragiker sowie Shakespeares geschaffen hat. Die musikalische Leitung hat Philippe Jordan. Vladislav Sulimsky und Asmik Grigorian verkörpern eines der faszinierendsten und furchterregendsten Paare der Operngeschichte: Macbeth und Lady Macbeth. Aufzeichnung vom 29. Juli 2023 bei den Salzburger Festspielen, Österreich.

- It's a billion-dollar business: Criminal networks from Nigeria make money from drug and human trafficking. In their home country, they lure young women with the prospect of a secure future in Europe - a fateful promise. Because it leads to forced prostitution. The women pay thousands of euros for the often illegal journey. Once there, the human traffickers demand the money back and force the young women into prostitution. They are put under psychological pressure by an archaic "Yuyu" ritual intended to prevent them from escaping and escaping their tormentors. "Without demand, the business would not exist," says social worker Princess Inyang Okokon. She herself had fallen into the hands of human traffickers, but managed to get out and is now helping other women to break out of forced prostitution. Fateful Promises reveals how the traffickers operate. The documentary accompanies the committed Italian prosecutor Lina Trovato and the German investigator Colin Nierenz in their work and tells of the fate of young Nigerian women who managed to escape from forced prostitution.
