Viva Maria!
1965, French. Directed by Louis Malle.
The world will never forget the two heroines who charged into battle undaunted, unafraid, and… undressed!
1907 Central America: Maria II is the daughter of an Irish terrorist. After her father's death, she meets Maria I, a performer, and decides to stay with the circus, and on her debut as a singer, unintentionally invents the striptease and makes the circus famous. Their inadvertent encounter with a socialist revolutionary lands them leading a revolution against the dictator, the capitalists, and the Church.
