"Blood on the jewels, blood on the crown, the soil of the garden dark with blood.... I know, Bluebeard - I know what is hidden behind the seventh door."
A young woman, Judith, has fallen in love with the mysterious figure of Duke Bluebeard. She follows him to his remote castle, in spite of the rumours that his previous wives have all disappeared. There she finds seven locked doorways and, as each is opened in its turn, Bluebeard's Castle yields up its terrible secrets.
This timeless legend, in a new production on film for BBC TV, is underscored by some of Bartok's most powerful and romantic music. Prologue read by John Woodvine.
