Lady Nazca

An inspiring true story of Maria Reiche, breathtaking Peruvian landscapes, and captivating exploration of the Nazca Lines’ mystery. With strong performances and contemplative storytelling, it blends history, drama, and personal resilience into a visually stunning, emotionally rich cinematic journey. 
Devrim Lingnau (The Impress) delivers a widely praised performance as Maria Reiche, embodying the mathematician‑turned‑archaeologist’s determination and sensitivity. 
Guillaume Gallienne (Me, Myself and Mum), an acclaimed French actor and longtime friend of Dorsaz, plays the archaeologist who introduces Maria to the Nazca desert. His involvement adds prestige and dramatic weight to the cast. 

With the second World War looming and having lost everything before, Maria Reiche flees Germany and ends up in Peru. There, she tries to fit in an inhibited society for the sake of her lover Amy. But she only starts to find her true calling in life when she takes a trip to the desert of Nazca and stumbles upon mysterious Lines, drawn in the soil. Against all odds, against everyone, Maria ties her destiny to the Nazca lines, and takes on the mission to find their meaning. A journey that will throw her into tremendous trouble and danger – but also give her a sense of peace, at last, as she finally finds where she belongs, sweeping the desert.
