Moses und Aron

"Moses und Aron" (1975) is a cinematic opera based on Arnold Schoenberg's unfinished opera of the same title, presented by the French filmmaking duo Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet. The film explores the fraternal pair Moses and Aaron as they debate God's true message and intent for His creations within a Roman amphitheater set. Günter Reich plays Moses in this visually striking and musically infused drama that retains the unfinished nature of the original opera, featuring Louis Devos as Aron, Eva Csapo as Junges Mädchen, Roger Lucas as Junger Mann, and Richard Salter as Anderer Mann.
