Maria Callas, having reached the twilight of her career, comes out of reclusive retirement only to confront painful memories of her past love affair with billionaire Aristotle Onassis and the fact that she can no longer pretend to have the voice she once had. Her eager manager, determined to re-ignite her passion and restore her legacy, convinces her to take on an important project: a film of the opera "Carmen," in which she will lip-sync her own glorious recording of many years previous. The soprano at first accepts but gradually comes to the realization that technology cannot replace art.
