The film reveals the backstage world of one of the most famous opera houses on Earth – the legendary La Scala in Milan. It is not only a monumental building, but also a living organism in which ambition, dreams, talent, and excellence merge into one. On December 7, the opera season begins here, drawing opera lovers from all over the world. We follow the stories of artists, conductors, craftsmen, and other theatre employees as they prepare the premiere of Verdi’s “The Force of Destiny”, discovering how much work – usually invisible to audiences – lies behind every performance.

The film fully immerses the viewer in the inner workings of this legendary stage. La Scala is a place where careers are born, and where every decision can ultimately shape an artist’s fate. Yet the film is not only a story about opera – it is a story of many hands shaping the dream of magic that arises when music, artistry, and people come together to create art. It is also an unprecedented portrait of passion and dedication, and of the price that must be paid in the pursuit of perfection. The film grants access to a world usually hidden behind the curtain at La Scala, presenting the theatre as a home and a space for fulfilling dreams and life’s challenges.
