Zum Inhalt:

This film follows Stephen Fry on a very personal journey to explore his fascination for history's most controversial composer: Richard Wagner. Stephen follows the Wagner trail to Switzerland and Russi, immersing himself in the music and piecing together the larger- than-life story of the composer himself. But can Stephen - who is himself from Jewish descent - salvage the music he loves from its dark association with Hitler and the Nazis?

This DVD is the theatrical release (30 minutes longer than the televised version) and contains an additional 36 minutes of bonus interviews and performances.
