An invaluable exploration of the life and legacy of iconic diva Maria Callas, portrayed by Monica Bellucci. Through intimate memoirs, letters, and rare footage, we journey into Callas’s world—from her modest beginnings in New York City to her triumphs on the global stage. This film captures two distinct eras: the period when Callas rose to the heights of fame, and today, when her voice continues to resonate. At its heart, this is a dialogue between two women—Callas and Bellucci—who, despite their differing backgrounds, share a profound dedication to their art. This encounter bridges past and present, revealing the human spirit behind the legend and honoring an artist who transformed her pain into timeless beauty.
