The poignant story of Herbert Strehlow, a former foreign legionnaire from Germany, and his love for a stricken Slovakian girl is brilliantly detailed in Lea , presented by the UA German Film Series. Upon his arrival in Slovakia, Strehlow quickly falls for Lea, and wastes little time in buying her from her stepparents. He then forces the girl to come with him to Germany and become his wife. From these inauspicious beginnings, an unlikely relationship surprisingly blooms. Connecting on a spiritual level, their intimacy grows in this charming reaffirmation of love's potential.
Admission is free.
