Descend into a portrait of Rome on the brink of war. A police state reigns over the city, and at its head is the merciless Baron Scarpia. Amid the tumult, love blossoms between two artists: the singer Floria Tosca and the painter Mario Cavaradossi. But Tosca has caught Scarpia’s eye. To claim the singer for himself, Scarpia concocts a plan to send her lover to the firing squad — and Tosca’s only hope to save him is to do the unspeakable.
