Description

The Wagner Files has been the recipient of many international film awards, including the Audience Award for the Best Documentary at the 37th World Film Festival in Montreal, Canada. It is an innovative and dynamic fusion of music documentary, fictional film and animated cartoon. It critically introduces the life and musical creativity of one of the most famous – and arguably most controversial – German composers in a way that has never been done before. High quality, thought-provoking fictional scenes trace the complex and scandalous relationship between Richard Wagner and his second wife Cosima. The Wagner Files is a cross media project including an interactive Graphic Novel (app) and a graphic novel (print).
