Fidelio is a 19th century rewrite of Gluck’s Orfeo and Euridice. The gender-ambiguous protagonist goes on the underground rescue mission and must control his/her emotions in order to succeed. People who dislike Fidelio are usually expecting a deep philosophical story with a essence like Ode to Joy. It’s much easier to enjoy it if you just take it as a prison story like Escape from Alcatraz or The Shawshank Redemption.
