Florestan is imprisoned by his evil enemy, Pizarro. Hearing this news, his lovely wife Lenora dresses herself as a young man, Fidelio, and goes in search of him. In her search, she makes herself the assistant to Florestan’s jailer Rocco, and the jailor’s daughter falls in love with Lenora, still disguised as Fidelio.
