Maria by Callas (2017)
Maria by Callas
The life of Maria Callas is explored based on the words and thoughts of the late soprano herself. Tom Volf's documentary, which took four years of painstaking research to assemble, bases its appraisal on the diva's television interviews, from the entries in her diaries and from the letters she sent to her friends. The film reveals the essence of an extraordinary woman, who rose from humble beginnings in New York City to become a glamorous international superstar and one of the greatest artists of all time
Maria by Callas airs on BBC Four at 12:35 AM, Monday 30 December. (Subtitles.)
