This evocative biopic pays tribute to to the life and legacy of American photographer Elizabeth ‘Lee’ Miller (Kate Winslet). Determined to document the truth of the Nazi regime, and in spite of the odds stacked against female correspondents, Lee captured some of the most important images of World War II, for which she paid an enormous personal price.
A passion project for star, producer and cinematic national treasure Kate Winslet, who fought tirelessly for years to bring the project to fruition, Lee unites a stellar supporing cast, which includes Josh O’Connor, Marion Cotillard, Alexander Skarsgård and Andrea Riseborough.
This impassioned ode to the power of journalism and photography, and the bravery of Lee Miller in resolutely navigating an unwaveringly patriarchal field and bearing witness to the unimaginably traumatic horrors of war, marks the assured feature debut for cinematographer turned director Ellen Kuras.
