Princezná

In 1960's Finland, writer Gunnar Mattsson meets a young nurse who has been stricken with Hodgkin's disease and has only been given a short time to live. Even though logic tells him to stay away, something draws him to her anyway. Gunnar and "The Princess," as he dubs her, soon marry in spite of her seeming death sentence. Her fondest wish had always been to have a child, and when she becomes pregnant, she ceases her treatments for fear that they will harm her baby. What follows is a miraculous story of love and the triumph of the human mind and spirit over adversity.
