Continuing his run of acclaimed and original biopics (Spencer, Jackie), in Maria Pablo Larraín explores who Maria Callas (Angelina Jolie) really was, away from the fame and tabloid headlines. Reimagining Callas’ final days as her health was failing, Larrain shows us the famed soprano as she wanders around a picturesque Paris recounting the highs and lows of her life to a revering journalist.

Angelina Jolie gives a transforming performance, capturing the tumultuous, beautiful and tragic story of the life of the world’s greatest female opera singer through memories, friends, and, most importantly, her singing.
