Maya

[BE THE FIRST TO RATE THIS MOVIE]
Calorie Rating: 110
Released: 1949-12-09
Running Time: 78 Minutes
Studios: Izarran,


Based on a venerable Legend of the Sea, the story concerns a pliable prostitute named Bella (Romance) who is all things to all men. No matter what sort of woman her client wants, she will become that woman -- at least for the night. When a middle-aged man named Jean insists that Bella is his long-lost sweetheart, she plays along, hoping to escape her sordid lifestyle. The emotional tragedy that follows is meant to explain how Bella became "Maya," the living embodiment of Lost Souls.
