As part of Austin Film Society's Traveling Circus series, Viva Maria! follows Irish revolutionary bomber Brigitte Barbot who is on the run with a traveling circus, but soon discovers her talent for getting men all hot and bothered. Joining Jeanne Moreau's cabaret act, she refines the art of striptease while fomenting revolution across Latin America. It's all part of a visually sexy and musically gifted film perfect for the summer blues.
