EVITA

COMING SOON!

A look at perhaps the most extraordinary woman Latin America has ever produced. Born in poverty in 1919, she rose to stardom as a radio and cinema actress and became the wife of General Peron, the most powerful man in Argentina. When General Peron became president she became a political leader in her own right and is still worshipped by millions of her countrymen. Blonde and beautiful, she died in her early thirties of cancer, but still managed to transform radically the lot of women in a predominantly male society.
