MARIA INTO LIFE

Maria prides herself on hard work and devotion. Kind-hearted and a little clumsy, she has always been a cleaning lady. But she has a secret passion. Hidden inside the little red book she takes everywhere are poems she writes but shares with no one, especially not with her indifferent husband. When Maria gets a job on the cleaning crew at the prestigious Paris Beaux-Arts fine arts academy, she is enchanted by its grandeur and beauty. She befriends its students, and hits it o! with Hubert - the school’s eccentric long-time custodian, obsessed with mastering the iconic dance moves of Elvis Presley. A new world opens up to Maria and changes everything as she rediscovers herself.
