**CANCELLATION: Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond their control, the Belfast Film Festival have had to cancel this screening. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.**

The first film to tell the life story of the legendary Greek/American opera singer completely in her own words.

Told through performances, TV interviews, home movies, family photographs, private letters and unpublished memoirs-nearly all of which have never been shown to the public-the film reveals the essence of an extraordinary woman who rose from humble beginnings in New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.

"What emerges is a portrait of a woman of extraordinary natural gifts and work ethic, who was pressured to become a superstar by her mother and then her husband, instead of a conventional homemaker and mother" - WASHINGTON POST

Belfast Film Festival films will not feature ads or trailers and will, therefore, start at the advertised time.
