Screening: Callas assoluta documentary by Philippe Kohly
Studio Bastille
19h30
The story of Maria Callas is that of a little girl who decides to become the greatest singer of the century. She imposes her desire on the world, only to then destroy the singer she has created. A fabulous story that was still waiting for its true novel. A rigorous film, without interviews with outside witnesses, leaving all the space to its heroine. A film that, for the first time, brings the great Callas of the 1950s back to life and follows her passions step by step. Ultimately, it is the poignant story of an absolute heroine for whom everything was larger than life: her willpower, her musical genius, her fame, her passionate love affairs, her betrayals, her loneliness...
