![]() |
A 90 minute film documenting the extraordinary life and music of one of the world's great divas, "The Art of Amália" is by far the most comprehensive visual archive ever assembled about the legendary Fado singer, Amália Rodrigues. Constructed with footage ranging from 1920 to 1999, the film includes live clips from Amália's worldwide concerts, television appearances, scenes from movies, backstage moments and a revealing interview with Amália herself. Best of all, it contains many never-seen-before performances as well as rare, soulful renditions of all of her classic Fados. |
