Police chief Scarpia has fallen for the beautiful singer Tosca. But she loves the painter Cavaradossi. The fact that the two men are political opponents makes the situation hopeless. A drama that none of the three will survive takes its course. Love, jealousy, torture, murder and suicide make Puccini’s masterpiece a passionate love story and a political thriller.
