Centring around the operatic works of 19th century composer Richard Wagner, the event has earned a pilgrimatic ambiance amongst Wagner-enthusiasts – and attracts a waiting list of several years to obtain tickets. An opera enthusiast himself, Herzog (who holds little reservation about placing himself within the mise-en-scene) has managed to expertly capture the intricacies of the festival is his inimitable fashion.
