Maria tells the story of the legendary opera singer Maria Callas. In an intimate portrait of the final days in the life of this iconic diva, we see her grapple with haunting visions, her mental state, the fear of losing her voice, and memories of her youth and loved ones. Supported by her servants, friends, and her magnificent music, Callas drifts through the rooms of her apartment and the streets of 1970s Paris. Through her struggle with the challenges of fame, love, and the pursuit of artistic perfection, the film reveals the vulnerable woman behind the icon.
Following Jackie and Spencer, Pablo Larraín delivers the final installment in his trilogy of sensitive, poignant biographical films about world-renowned, tormented women. Maria is yet another immersive and visually stunning narrative that, thanks to the extraordinary performance of Oscar-winner Angelina Jolie, brings to life the complexity and tragic beauty behind the figure of "La Callas."
