The opera’s ill-fated love triangle plays out amid the dangerous world of pearl fishing. Nadir and Zurga once loved the same woman but renounced their love out of friendship for one another. Now, years later, they meet again. Then, a veiled woman arrives. The two friends believe she is just another priestess whose prayers protect the fishermen, but she is revealed as Leïla, the «goddess» from the temple whom Nadir never forgot.
