A young Englishman visits Cold War Leipzig with a group of students
and, during his brief excursion behind the iron curtain, falls for
an East German girl who is only just beginning to wake up to the
way her society is governed. Her situation touches him, but he is
too frightened to help. He spends decades convincing himself that
he is not in love until one day, with Germany now reunited, he
decides to go back and look for her. But who was she, how will his
actions have affected her, and how will her find her? All he knows
of her identity is the nickname he gave her - Snowleg. Snowleg is a
powerful love story that explores the close, fraught relationship
between England and Germany, between a man who grows up believing
himself to be a chivalrous English public schoolboy and a woman who
tries to live loyally under a repressive regime.
