This opera is particularly close to South African hearts, as much of the storyline refers to Ghandi and his work to uplift and free the local community in Tolstoy Farm in the early 1900s.

Releasing on 9 December, Satyagraha was captured in HD while live on stage at the Met in New York, giving viewers the opportunity to experience opera at its best, and all in the comfort of their local Ster-Kinekor or Cinema Nouveau Theatre.

“Our fifth season of opera has been widely successful and the last three productions have come out as part of the Top 10 Cinema Nouveau titles during their release weekend. These attendances are testament to the appeal of opera to our local audiences, and we are looking forward to releasing Satyagraha in December, and are confident it will be greatly received,” says Raksha Singh of Ster-Kinekor Theatres.

Satyagraha'a running time is approximately five hours, including two intermissions.
