SUMMARY

A very intimate story based on the life of a European Countess who lived at the end of the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. Growing up as a free spirit, surrounded by the leading artists & intellectuals of her time, but suffering from personal misfortunes, she searches for the balance between love and independence, passion and intellect, inner and outer beauty and tries to understand who she is as a woman as well as a human being. While her journey, stretching over four different political regimes, is an extraordinary and unique one, her motifs, doubts, hopes and longings are universal and timeless. Her determination to embrace her womanhood and use her female attributes to live freely in the men dominated world was way ahead of her time and resonates now more then ever
