The passionate story of the life and love of Lucia, the famous veiled courtesan who broke Casanova's heart.

A Beautiful Imperfection tells the empowering story of Lucia, Giacomo Casanova’s only great love, who leaves Italy for Amsterdam after her face has been disfigured by smallpox. Sixteen years later, they meet again when she has reinvented herself as a veiled courtesan now known by the name of Galathée. Without revealing her true identity or showing her face, Lucia and Giacomo become lovers once again. Will Lucia dare to reveal herself and turn her weakness into her strength so that she can be truly free in the eyes of her great love?

Directed by Michiel van Erp (“Open Seas”, “Stromboli”, “Ramses”), this English-language romantic drama unfolds against Venice's stunning backdrop, centering a strong female lead in a modern take on their torrid affair. Based on Arthur Japin's prize-winning novel “In Lucia’s Eyes”—a million-copy international bestseller that claimed the 2004 Libris Literature Prize— the film explores resilience, identity, and redemption through intimate passion and bold reinvention. Jonah Hauer-King (“The Little Mermaid”) portrays the adventurer Casanova, opposite Dar Zuzovsky (“Hostages”) as the enigmatic Galathée.
