Copenhagen, early 1920s. Danish artist, Gerda Wegener, painted her own
husband, Einar Wegener (Eddie Redmayne), as a lady in her painting. When
the painting gained popularity, Einar started to change his appearance
into a female appearance and named himself Lili Elbe. With his feminism
passion and Gerda’s support, Einar – or Elbe attempted first-ever male
to female sex reassignment surgery, a decision that turned into a
massive change for their marriage, that Gerda realized her own husband
is no longer a man or the person she married before. A childhood friend
of Einar, art-dealer Hans Axgil (Matthias Schoenaerts), shows up and
starts a complex love triangle with the couple.
