Description
A legendary figure in the world of opera, the diva is feted as no other singer. Diva means goddess, and her voice certainly seems to come from another world, but a diva can also be temperamental, glamorous and larger-than-life. Everyone speaks in this film, including (archive) Maria Callas, Joan Sutherland and Jessye Norman, their drivers, stage doormen, admirers, svengalis, business managers and conductors. Then, of course, there's the music.
