Stroperas I & II is a short experimental film directed by Frank Scheffer and based on the complete Opera's Europera's I & II composed by John Cage. From 1982 to 1992 Frank Scheffer worked with John Cage on numerous occasions, which resulted in a unique archive of historical audio-visual material like this. Based on this exceptional archive, including interviews, musical performances, and images of different locations related to Cage’s life and work, Scheffer created an intimate portrait of one of the 20th century’s most important composers and creative minds at work: the documentary "How to Get Out of the Cage - A Year with John Cage".
