Stéphane Lissner has commissioned three high-style, high-cost films to raise the profile of the Bastille.
All involve some element of sexual suggestion.
The films were released this week.
See what you think of this.

Dreadful: how could they stoop so low?
At least she didn’t conduct…
Good to see the mainstream repertoire expert Lissner spending taxpayers’ money well after having Nicolas Joel’s team paid off six months early to the tune of €3,000,000. That’s the way to run a high-profile public institution.

I guess Theodore was being ironical… (Lissner ridiculed himself on French TV when he turned out to be unable to recognize the origin of excerpts taken from “mainstream operatic repertoire”).
Good accompaniment by Simon Rattle at 14′ 42″.
Only in France…
This is a facts-free zone? They are almost all wrong. Has nobody heard of Barbara Hannigan? Shame.
In today Le Monde (Paris newspaper), an article describes the Paris Opera’s digital platform, La 3ième Scène, of which this short film is only one example.
Norman: it is reported that half of the 2 million€ operating budget for La 3ième Scène, comes from private sponsors.

“La 3e Scène, espace numérique dédié à la création, mis en place par l’Opéra national de Paris, a ouvert mardi 15 septembre. Déjà en ligne, une vingtaine de petits films, signés par le gratin de la création contemporaine comme le plasticien Xavier Veilhan ou le cinéaste Mathieu Amalric, sont visibles. Cette plateforme au budget annoncé de deux millions d’euros, dont 50 % proviendraient du mécénat – l’un des partenaires, Van Cleef & Arpels, apparaît ainsi en première page sur le site –, est gratuite.”
