THY NAME IS WOMAN – Isolde and Tristan
Reimagined Wagner’s legendary opera through the voices of women across centuries. The story follows a Swedish opera singer who collapses during a performance of "Tristan und Isolde" and enters a psychiatric clinic. Thirteen years later, in isolation, she imagines herself as women from different eras — from Princess Isolde in 500 AD to a mother in the present day — offering a haunting meditation on identity, silence, and survival. Directed by Selcuk Cara, an internationally acclaimed “ filmmaker who creates both films and multidisciplinary projects", the film blends opera, cinema, and philosophy into a groundbreaking work of hybrid art.
