La bohème

Large, Brian (1982)

Filmed stage production of Puccini's famous opera.

It is Christmas Eve and Rodolfo, an aspiring young writer, tries desparately to heat up the Parisian garret studio he shares with his Bohemian friends. When Mimi, a poor seamstress, comes in to borrow a light for her candle, Rodolfo is immediately charmed by her. Mimi and Rodolfo fall deeply in love, but Mimi's ill health and Rudolfo's possessiveness soon look set to tear the couple apart.

In Italian with English, French, Dutch and Spanish subtitles.
