Summary
It starts with a question, a simple favour asked by a wife of her husband, setting off a transformation neither can anticipate...Einar Wegener and his American wife Greta Waud have been married for six years, but are yet to have a child. Both painters, they live a life of bohemian languor in Copenhagen until one day their lives are irreversibly altered. The Danish Girl eloquently shows the intimacy that defines a marriage and the nearly forgotten story of the love between a man who discovers that he is, in fact, a woman, and his wife who would sacrifice anything for him...Set against the glitz and decadence of 1920s Copenhagen, Paris and Dresden, and inspired by a true story
