Event Description : Opera At Habitat Series : Puccini’s "Turandot" film screening.

Sunit Tandon introduces a video film of a spectacular live staging at the historic Forbidden City of Beijing of Puccini’s last opera, which is set in China. The plot involves Prince Calàf, who falls in love with the cold Princess Turandot. To obtain permission to marry her, a suitor has to solve three riddles; any wrong answer results in death. Calàf passes the test, but Turandot still refuses to marry him. He offers her a way out: if she is able to learn his name before dawn the next day, then at daybreak he will die...
