In the spectacular but improbable setting of the New Mexican desert just outside Santa Fe is one of the great opera houses of the world. Every summer thousands of visitors come to Santa Fe for its adventurous blend of grand opera and the Old West. This is still very much Indian country, and our film interweaves the vivid New Mexican background with the five operas in the 20th season-Salome, The Marriage of Figaro, La Traviata, L'Egisto, and the new 1976 production, The Mother of Us All, a pageant of American history on the theme of women's suffrage.

Alec McCowen tells
The Door in the Wall by H. G. WELLS ' He began to tell of the thing that was hidden in his life, the haunting memory of a beauty and happiness that filled his heart with insatiable longings, that made all the interests and spectacle of worldly life seem dull and tedious and vain to him.'
Director PHILIP CHILVERS
Producer FRANCES WHITAKER
