Description:

A tale of two love stories with numbers from operettas and musicals. What was supposed to be a fleeting romance turns into something more serious. ......This film, written and directed by popular opera director Christophe Roy, depicts the love and separation of a wayward man and woman against the backdrop of Amsterdam's beautiful cityscape, using operettas and hit musical numbers as a pastiche. The film is a musical film that uses operettas and hit musical numbers as a pastiche for the story of a man and woman who fall in love and part ways against the beautiful backdrop of Amsterdam. The film is a testament to Christophe Roy's love of a wide range of music and cinema that goes beyond the classical repertoire. The two leading couples, Annette Dasch and Theresa Kronthaler, two divas, character actor baritone Thomas Olliemans, and second tenor Norman Reinhardt, act and sing with flair as themselves. The film is also a tribute to legendary Dutch singer/songwriter Varly Taks' 1989 hit song "Springtime in Amsterdam," in which he sings about his feelings for a departed lover. Naxos Japan
