Vivaldi and Me at filmforum Duisburg: A Baroque Drama of Rare Intensity

On June 10, 2026, filmforum Duisburg will open the curtain for Vivaldi and Me and invites you to an evening where music, freedom, and female self-assertion come together in a sensuous and dramatic way. The film tells the story of Cecilia in the Ospedale della Pietà, a Venetian orphanage with its own orchestra, and Antonio Vivaldi, who recognizes and nurtures her talent.

Baroque Tones that Open the Space

Damiano Michieletto stages the 18th century raw and unvarnished, without postcard kitsch but with great visual power. The music shines all the brighter because the world around Cecilia is characterized by discipline, control, and social constriction. This is exactly where the stage experience of its cinema presentation gains the tension that immediately captures the audience. ([filmforum.de](https://filmforum.de/filme/vivaldi-und-ich-49697/))

Cecilia at the Center of a Great Emancipation Story

At the heart of the story is not the famous composer, but Cecilia, played by Tecla Insolia with grace and determination. The character emerges from the shadow of the grid and transforms musical talent into a sign of dignity and resistance. This creates a narrative that combines historical accuracy with emotional intensity. ([filmforum.de](https://filmforum.de/filme/vivaldi-und-ich-49697/))

A Cinema Palace with a Theater Atmosphere

filmforum Duisburg is considered the first municipal cinema in Germany and recalls the extraordinary atmosphere of a film palace from the 1950s. The venue itself enhances the theatrical atmosphere of the evening: a historically rich space where the acoustics, the light, and the proximity to the action make the film feel almost like a stage performance.
