Summary of Lea

This powerful romance proves that true love can emerge from the most unlikely of places. Lea (Lenka Vlasakova) is a mute 21-year-old who is still affected by a major childhood trauma, while Herbert (Christian Redl) is a sad 51-year-old who continues to mourn the death of his wife. Lea strikingly resembles Herbert's wife, which sparks a connection that eventually results in marriage. At first, the couple are awkward and uncomfortable, but gradually they begin to lean on one another until their walls of defense begin to crumble. Featuring impassioned performances by Vlasakova and Redl, Ivan Fila's film is a touching romantic drama.
