The documentary sheds light on the unknown aspects of Callas’ life in Athens, from the moment she came from America in 1937 until 1945 when she left for America again, bitter but ready as a lyric singer and determined to conquer the world. Through rare archival footage, unpublished recordings, interviews, and audio documents, the documentary attempts to tell the fictional story of Callas’ early years – a story of triumph of will, talent, hard work, and dedication, and at the same time a story of resistance to every hardship and abuse.
