In this episode which is based out of two European cities, Milan and Munich, Gener looks into the opera of Turandot- a love story set in Imperial China. The host then explores the idea of how this opera represents much more than a simple love story. It's the story of an absolute success, but also a failure.

At the height of his career, Puccini wrote this song to life, friendship and love. To illustrate it, Gener travels to bohemian Paris and enters some of its most characteristic locales such as the century-old book shop Shakespeare & Co. and Au Lapin Agile Cabaret, along with visiting a rehearsal of La Bohème at the Paris Opera House.

Rome, the eternal city, is the setting for this episode. It's also the city where the action in "Tosca" unfolds, a thriller with all the elements of a genre film. To unveil what these elements are, Gener seeks out the help of students from the Rome Film School.

Madame Butterfly teaches us about hope, longing, unconditional love and the problems when two cultures collide. Gener visits a cherry tree plantation in full bloom and will discover more about the symbolism of this tree in Japanese culture in general, and in Madame Butterfly specifically.
