Performing Wagner has been unofficially banned in Israel since the creation of the State because he was a cultural touchstone of Nazism. But could Wagner’s music transcend the antisemitic views of its creator? When Ya’akov, an Israeli conductor, announces he will play Wagner in the finals of the Esther Greenbaum International Conductors’ Competition, Esther, a Holocaust survivor, must face a moral dilemma: whether the trauma of the past justifies stifling the future of young talent.
