Synopsis
For director Tony Palmer, the intense and emotional voice of the soprano Maria Callas (1923-1977) concealed all the dramatic weight of a stormy life and of a love relationship with Aristotle Onassis that was as bitter as it was intense. Through powerful archival material and testimonies from those who loved her, those who admired her, and even those who refuse to recognise her talent, this documentary brings us closer to the life and work of one of the most exuberant and charismatic operatic figures of all time.
