Lee tells the story of American photographer Lee Miller (portrayed by Kate Winslet), who was determined to document the truth of the Nazi regime, in spite of the odds stacked against her.
Miller defied the expectations and rules of the time and travelled to Europe to report from the frontline. There, in part as a reaction to her own well-hidden trauma, she used her Rolleiflex camera to give a voice to the voiceless.
What Lee captured on film in Dachau and throughout Europe was shocking and horrific. Her photographs of the war, its victims and its consequences remain among the most significant and historically important of the Second World War.
