Wonders Are Many - The Making Of Doctor Atomic
The spectacular opening to Jon Else’s critically acclaimed Wonders Are Many - nuclear blast after blast in the desert, under the ocean, high in space - intimates what is to follow: a profound and triumphant fusing of art and science, humanity and technology, destruction and creation.
Wonders Are Many: The Making Of Doctor Atomic traces a dazzling double-helix trajectory: one thread follows composer John Adams and director Peter Sellars as they work to create Doctor Atomic, the strange and beautiful opera about J. Robert Oppenheimer and the first atomic bomb; the other recounts the actual historical events that underpin the stage drama. Masterfully interwoven with recently declassified footage of U.S. nuclear testing and the frenetic backstage action of the San Francisco Opera, the film creates an explosive vortex of performers and physicists, past and present, all of which is channeled into high art by the creative power of Adams and Sellars.
A magnificent pastiche of potent elements, Wonders Are Many is a profound and triumphant fusing of art and science, humanity and technology, and destruction and creation.
