I masnadieri

About the show

Carlo Moor, the elder son of Count Massimiliano, joins a band of robbers after believing that his father has rejected him. His brother Francesco has intercepted Carlo’s plea for forgiveness and plots to inherit the estate, telling their father and Carlo’s beloved Amalia that Carlo is dead. Servant Arminio later reveals that Carlo and the Count are alive. Carlo reunites with Amalia and discovers his father, but when the robbers capture Amalia and she insists she still loves him, Carlo kills her rather than draw her into his criminal life.
