An awe inducing Angelina Jolie
The new film from Pablo Larraín the director of Jackie and Spencer, Maria tells the glamorous, moving story of the iconic singer, Maria Callas. Featuring some of Callas's greatest recordings and starring Oscar® winner Angelina Jolie in an awards-worthy performance, Maria is a sumptuous drama that hits all the high notes.
Paris, 1977: once the world's greatest soprano, Callas now hides in an apartment, having lost her voice and retreated from the world. She dreams of returning to the stage, but can her body and mind take the pressure?
