This vivid film of Wagner's romantic opera succeeds in conveying what has famously been called the wind that blows out at you whenever you open the score, including Daland's boat anchoring against the Sandwike cliffs, the red-sailed phantom ship, and the ghost crew rising from the dead.

Wolfgang Sawallisch conducts the Bayerisches Staatsorchester in this production of Wagner's opera, with Donald McIntyre in the role of Hollander and Catherina Ligendza as Senta. Norwegian sea captain Daland encounters a ghostly ship when he is blown off course. It is that of the Flying Dutchman, a legendary figure condemned to sail the Cape of Good Hope until he can be redeemed by the love of a good woman. Daland's daughter Senta seems to offer the Dutchman a hope of salvation.
