SYNOPSIS

What was Greta Gustafson, the latter Greta Garbo like in the nineteen twenties? According to the Swedish author, Tin Andersén Axell's novel based on private letters she was a disjointed, spontaneous person, a joyful, witty, almost exalted young woman, who woke up to her extraordinary talent in the Academy of Drama, and resisted all kinds of authority, restriction, lessoning.

She wasn't a cold, moderate, elegant goddess as the world believed. The Drama Academy played a key roll during her whole life, but Mimi was the most important to her. Their friendship – as it appears from the letters – lasted lifelong.

The memory of a youthful love eased Greta's dowager loneliness. The twosome stage play takes place in the associative fields of memory, the stage transforms into the film of Garbo and Mimi. Letters and monologues follow each other, time is disappearing in the logic of the mind. Garbo and Mimi is played by two brilliant Hungarian actresses, Andrea Fullajtár and Anna Szandtner.
