I thought this was a very interesting production/interpretation of Rusalka, though I wished they had added English subtitles on the DVD (yes, I know they are singing in English, but it's still difficult to decipher the words nevertheless). Something that really made me laugh -and I kept pressing the backward button - was when one of the "Wood Nymphs" tripped and fell on the stage, making a very loud "THUMP!" I almost missed it at first and thought it was part of the production, but watching it again I realized she tripped on her costume (long white nightgown). It's terrible of me, but I could not stop laughing! You should rent this (I rented it from Netflix) just to see this innocuous blooper. I hope her knee was okay...Gotta admire the way she just carried on with the performance though....If it was me I would have run offstage sobbing.
