Based on Ethel Smyth's opera The Wreckers, Kerstin Steeb’s Strandrecht creates a vision of civil disobedience in the guise of a feminist opera—positioned somewhere between lavish music theatreand a performative experience. A contemporary interpretation of this hitherto underappreciated work emerges from a blend of original piano passages, classical vocals, electronic sounds, and new text fragments.
The Wreckers was directed by Kerstin Steeb.
The Wreckers runs for 1h 40min, and was released in 2019.
