Werther, ce soir…
En cette fin des années 80, Orlando Natale est le meilleur ténor du monde. Du Metropolitan de New York à la Scala de Milan, de Covent Garden au Palais-Garnier, les foules se pressent pour l’entendre. De tous les rôles qu’il interprète, celui qu’il préfère est Werther… Et un soir, au théâtre de Mannheim, sous des tempêtes d’applaudissements, il rencontre Carola K. À partir de cet instant, l’Opéra et la Vie commencent à se ressembler étrangement… Des coïncidences se produisent à Munich, à Vienne, jusqu’à ce qu’arrive enfin la nuit de Venise où tout s’embrase dans le déferlement de l’orchestre et où théâtre et réalité se confondent.
