Maria
Synopsis
"Only when I was singing did I feel loved...to sing is an expression of your being, a being which is becoming."
In this experimental film, Maria Callas is transfigured in recordings of different performances - Norma, Tosca and Medea. The film is composed as an audio-visual ICONOSTASIS (a wall of icons) of different archive formats and newly shot footage.
MARIA is a transcendent experimental vision of an icon, artist and woman.
