The Little Match Girl

Andersen’s matchstick saleswoman, Bresson’s donkey, the impossible reconciliation between a German soldier from the Red Army Fraktion and a delicate Argentine pianist, and Helmut Lachenmann trying to put together a demented opera with the striking orchestra of the Colon Theatre. In the middle of this, Marie and Walter, inhabit this comedy trying to maintain their young daughter with nothing but the improbable salary that music provides them.
