My GUESS: The master cylinder piston is stuck forward. If the  piston doesn't 
retract when you release the brake pedal, the inlet port  from the master 
cylinder reservoir will not be uncovered and no fluid will get  to the brake 
lines.
 
In some master cylinders, the front and rear piston are separate  parts with 
a rod/spring combination which causes them to move forward. The  forward most 
piston can get stuck while the rearmost piston works  just fine.
