Maria Callas, the world's greatest opera singer, lives the last days of her life in 1970s Paris, as she confronts her identity and life.
★★★★ The Guardian & The Independent
Angelina Jolie stars as Maria Callas, capturing both her fierce passion on stage and her complex personal struggles off it.
As she battles between her demanding career and longing for personal happiness, Pablo Larraín’s narrative unfolds with sensitivity, exploring her relationships, insecurities and the sacrifices she made for her art.
The film juxtaposes grand, beautifully staged opera scenes with quieter moments that reveal Callas’s inner turmoil, creating a portrait that is as powerful as it is poignant.
With Larraín’s nuanced direction and Jolie’s evocative performance, ‘Maria’ is both a tribute to a legendary voice and a study of artistic endurance.
