Professional Czech high diver Andrea Absolonová’s Olympic dreams are shattered when she suffers a devastating injury while training. Forced to leave the sport she loves, Andrea follows a photographer friend of hers into the world of nude modeling, ultimately reinventing herself as adult actress Lea De Mae and performing in over 80 porn films. Based on the tragic true story, HER BODY chronicles Absolonová’s journey as she navigates the seductive undercurrents of fame and desire, and her quest for self-liberation in this powerful portrait of resilience.

Reviews

  • "Rather than succumbing to sensationalism, Her Body offers a thoughtful exploration of identity, autonomy and the perception of the female body in industries that both exploit physical performance, yet are met with disparate levels of respect and reverence."
    Martin Kudláč, Cineuropa
  • "**** (4 stars) In effect, it’s three different roles – the Olympian, the recovering patient and the porn actress – and Germáni convinces in all of them. "
