Chilean director Pablo Larraín, known for Jackie and Spencer, returns with the third instalment of his unofficial trilogy about iconic, tragic women of the 20th century. The film imagines the last week in the life of the legendary opera diva Maria Callas as she struggles with the increasingly blurred lines between the celebrated ‘La Callas’ and the vulnerable, fragile Maria.

The legendary Greek-American opera singer believed that two different women lived inside her: Callas, the public figure and icon, and Maria, the woman who longed for a normal life. Through performances, TV interviews, home movies, family photographs, private letters and unpublished memoirs – nearly all of which have never been shown to the public – the film weaves an intimate and loving portrait of one of history’s most extraordinarily talented women, told completely in her own words.
