"Leonarda" is a movie about an encounter in Belarus, between a great-grandson and his foremother.The film-maker, a "capitalist wanderer" and the old woman, a catholic small farmer build an unlikely but magical couple. Together they live these moments as a privileged time, away from everything.But, over the journeys and the seasons, both realities  come back to them and, little by little, the magic withdraws.
