Paris, September 1977: Maria Callas (Angelina Jolie) has withdrawn from the public eye for years. The legendary opera diva no longer sings and lives enraptured in her huge apartment, behind heavy curtains, in a world full of memories. Only her faithful valet Ferruccio (Pierfrancesco Favino) and the cook Bruna (Alba Rohrwacher) are close to her, and both are increasingly worried about the health of their lady of the house. When the TV reporter Mandrax (Kodi Smit-McPhee) appears, Maria Callas blossoms. The interviews with the young man take Maria back to better, great, legendary times. She decides to return to the stage one last time.
Maria Callas is undisputedly the greatest diva in opera history. In MARIA, director Pablo Larraín now tells the singer's story through her own eyes as she relives her tragic life shortly before her death. After "Jackie" and "Spencer", MARIA is the conclusion of Larraín's trilogy about fascinating women of the 20th century.
